Congratulation, Tyler. Glad to see it running. Where is your wastegate source running to? and where is your Boost gauge source running to? If you have an 8psi spring, and only reading 5 on the gauge, maybe you have the wastegate getting reading from the compressor housing? and the boost gauge in the intake manifold might only be seeing 5psi due to a pressure drop? (but that big of a drop in those JRC FMICs would be really bad.) The Autometers I hear are sometimes up to 2psi inaccurate. Check your boost gauge line make sure its tightened good.


Anyways, have fun. I/ll try to make it to Wed. night Target meet to check her out. It will be probably around Christmas/New Year's when I finish mine, I have decided to throw in a few extra goodies and do things right the first time.

Any plans to build a motor? Mine is gonna be started on in a few mnoths.
