a few Q's about my SR

[sil_8t]

well first off, i just got my sr running and ideling decently,but when i drive it it seems so slow.It feels like when the boost is supposed to make you go faster it does the opposite.It feels as if it would be faster N/A .

-a list of things i think it might be

1) at first i thought i f'ed up my bov cause it was on backwards,and it was letting a little bit of air out (stock supra bov)so i bought another stock bov for a supra and it did the same thing when put on correctly and both of them made a psshh sound when you let off the gas. So i ran the car with out it and it was fine,then i put the BOV back on and instead of blowing into the atmosphere i ran going back into the intake,and ran it again and it was fine. a friend of mine said to tighten a screw on the BOV and it dosent have one so the cant be it.

2) im pretty sure my vacuum lines are ok, top left to my feul pressure regulator and T'd to my boost gauge.Top right to my BOV. the bottom one i blocked off. I was told i had to tap into my I/C pipe and run a vac hose from it to my wastegate actuator so i did and i seems to werk fine. BTW i have my boost controller in between my I/C pipe and my waste gate actuator,and when the boost is turned all the way down the waste gate does open up .when its turned up some it doesnt move that rod(or at least when theres no load on the engine)




When ever i go take my car for a spin i keep an eye on my boost gauge and it reads .06 bar so i dont thinkl there is a leak?

thanks for your input in advanced!!!

idk i dont care...um

do wut i did and u should be fine...if not u got a leak n your piping..or you bov is opening

jus follow the lines on the pic

and are u sure thats not .6 instead of .06?

[sil_8t]

thank for the pic

[sil_8t]

..........sorry .6

[Muzzy]

ahahahaha...i knew it..u boob!!!

yea .6 is fine thats like..7psi

1 bar is ....14.7 or 14.6 psi so its fine

[sil_8t]

thats cool, but why is it so damn slow?

[Muzzy]

idk..i think mine is s low too...im gonna take a ride in my frineds redtop and see how it compares to mine..so we will see then

[sil_8t]

its faster from 1k to 2.5k than from 3k to 7.5k

[sil_8t]

my stock gsr feels much faster!(180,000 miles on it!)

[sil_8t]

anyone else have advice?

[Muzzy]

thas odd..mines faster..3500 and on

Have you checked your timing? Have you checked for a boost leak? I know you said you dont think there is one but I would check anyways. Doesnt take long just use some soapy water on all your intercooler connections.

[sil_8t]

can you elaborate on the timing. ill try the soap water thing thanks

[sil_8t]

i know there is someone here who knows how to check/fix timing

[Muzzy]

srswap.com filthy monkey...they have a giant step by step guide on all kinda crap and an FAQ...its there...look

[AadosX]

Is your clutch slipping? Is your MAF bad? Check coil packs, injectors, plugs, etc. I've had more damn problems with my SR than anyone...

[sil_8t]

timing is ok, maybe the manual boost controller isnt werking properly?I got it running from the nipple on the I/C pipin to the B/C then to my waste gate actuator.am i supposed to T it to that hose or is it right.The pic on the instructions had a differetn turbo so the lines were all different .

[AadosX]

Try running it without any aftermarket things such as an MBC, THEN once it works perfectly, install the things again...

John can you tell me which wire coming off the O2 censor is the singal wire for the A/F gauge!
