    hey nick great video i know you made this a while ago but it was great instruction. As a marine mechanic i saw this and did actually found why you are not creating more than 25 psi, your map sensor has a dump load setting on it that is stock on the vehicle and can be disabled with a boost fooler. this is if you want to create more than 25 psi, to find this info i did it myself and ordered a waste gate and a fooler and created almost 35 psi. you probably know this by now but thought id throw it out there. great vid

      Correct about the fooler, but also it may not have been adjusted properly for his truck. I may have been opening as far as that setting is effected, by the gate. You can shorten the rod by turning the adjusting connection. Shortening it makes your pressure build sooner, thus allowing more boost fully open.

    Never thought of changing the boost waist gate. Being an old aircraft mechanic think I would replace the clip with a wrap of safety wire. Interesting to know how this effects turbo lag. Paper towels, what a great idea. Nick I cover my engine with old pillows when I lay on it, much more comfortable. Your testing is always interesting to me, it's real time data.

  • @RCAddictdez
    @RCAddictdez 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I would assume the reason why you are only getting to 22-23 psi is due to not having a tune/boost fooler, when the computer reads a certain psi (in this case 22-23psi) it will cut fuel to a lower duty cycle to prevent overboost

    Hello Nick. I'm thinking the reason that your only seeing 22 - 23 pounds of boost is when the map sensor sees 22 pounds it defuels the engine. That's why your repeatedly seeing the 22-23 lbs. The map sensor is working. I ordered a new 1/4" mini pressure regulator (like 10 or 12 bucks) and put two 1/4" barb connectors on it and preset it to 20 lbs. Then I cut the map sensor line about half way between the map sensor and the slip on connector on the intake spider and mounted it there. So now when I mash on it. The map sensor only sees the preset 20lbs but the boost gauge will continue to climb. BUT! You really need a EGT gauge to keep an eye on those exhaust temps now. Keep it below 1300° . Also need a fuel pressure gauge. I know you put 70 & 70+ pound springs in the fuel return but if the pump is weak and supply may be low as well. Thus the fuel pressure gauge will tell you. It takes fuel to make power. Peace.

    • @FixItNick
      @FixItNick 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @sonicbob7127
      @sonicbob7127 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@FixItNick That's great but it will not stop it from defueling. When the map sensor sees 23 pounds of boost it sends this information to the trucks ECM . Then the ECM defuels the motor so that it will only boost to 22 pounds. You can buy a boost fooler like this shop.fullforcediesel.com/boost-fooler but I built mine just like it for 15 bucks. Then just preset the regulator to twenty pounds and your good to go.

    I run Riff Raff’s OCR. It Will trick the map sensor into thinking it’s not reading max boost. Therefore not defueling and allowing you to reach a little more boost then 22 or 23 psi. Even when I had a stock turbo I still got around 26 PSI. ... I hope that helps buddy 😎

    FixItNick, if you look at your video at 5:12 you will see your old retainer clip behind the turbo wastegate operation lever, and you might want to get back in there and check the jam nut on the rod

    Ps: stick a magnet back there next time you take e clip off right next to it and magnet will suck it up when it pops off! Also, try adjusting the rod length if you want a bit more psi/open later should see a bit higher psi. If you really want higher psi you would need a different housing/compressor wheel and atleast a 360* oil ring in oil housing.

      @@FixItNick you don't need a tuner if you do the turbo work! A lot cheaper and much better than forcing fuel into the cylinders! I just completely rebuilt my turbo, fuel system, hpop added xover line among other things myself! If you need any advice or help feel free to shoot me a message. I absolutely love these 7.3l engines amazing feats of engineering, they last forever!!!

  • @stevenbrantner2435
    @stevenbrantner2435 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    The reason why it never built more than 23psi is because a wastegate needs to be preloaded to work properly try shorting the rod 1 turn at a time until you get the desired boost.
