HMHMHHMMMMMM. That doesn't seem right. What style Full-Race manifold you got? If it is the brand new design I got 11psi with the wastegate no prob and there are plenty of people with the old one and no problems. What PSI you trying to run? Curious as to what the problem is. Just a plain crazy experience. Good luck.

It is the brandnew design. I want to run 17psi. So far no one has an answer as to why?

 

I was planning to get the full race mani but def am following this thread to see what the result is. good luck in finding the problem.

 

Ok Todd at Fullrace told me to swich the hoses on the wastegate. By what he told me it makes sence. Hopefully I havent ruined this wastegate.. But now I know my car can take a spike of 2.4 bar..

 

How do you have the vacuum lines hooked up? You should have one hooked from the compressor housing or charge piping to the port (side) of the wastegate. The top should be vented to the atomshpere if you want to run off the wastegate spring, or hooked to a MBC/EBC for boost controll (teed into the port side). If you have the lines reversed then you will overboost like mad.

 

note to self, PM scorpion before hooking up my wastegate

 

wooooow GT35R can produce 2.4 bar of boost!!!!!!


scorpion is right on the hose connection
you should also clamp the hoses to avoid leaks

 

OK THAT WAS THE PROBLEM.. LINES WERE REVERSED. BUT I RAN IT TODAY.. 1ST RUN WAS .9 BAR,,,THEN MY 2ND RUN WAS 1.2 BAR.. NOW MY COCERN IS THAT IT HAS A 12 POUND SPRING..

 

OK I JUST HAD A DISTURBING CONVERSATION WITH TODD AT FULLRACE,, HE SAID THAT IT IS NORMAL TO GET BOOST CREEP FROM A 12 POUND SPRING TO CREEP UP TO 18 POUNDS OR MORE. DEPENDING HOW MUCH GAS AND HOW LONG I STAY ON IT. I HAVE NEVER HAD THAT PROBLEM WITH MY OLD MANIFOLD. THIS MEANS THAT I RUN RACE GAS ALL THE TIME AND HE SAID YES IF I WANT TO GET ON IT.. I AM NOT SATISFIED WITH THE RESULTS I NEVER THOUGHT I HAD TO RUN RACE GAS TO GET TO 17 PSI,,BUT BECAUSE OF BOOST HIGH BOOST CREEP I DON'T HAVE A STEADY BOOST.. WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK..

 

I have to rethink the plan to purchase that mani.
