How NOT to blow up your Stock engine with boost | Everything Wastegate, boost, creep, porting etc.

#turbo #tuning #miata #ecu #engine
Becase of experiencing an issue with current garrett internally wastegated turbocharging having a wrong spec on the actuator, i am going to show you how to avoid blowing up your stock engine when going turbo from wrong boost control, boost creep, boost spikes or other boost related things.

Great video !

Thanks!

Thanks for this. I see you run speeduino as well. Will have a look. Thanks!

If the actuator preload was set wrong, this can happen. Also if you run the vacuum lines wrong to a controller. It’s exactly double which leads me to believe you weren’t getting a proper boost reference to the actuator. A 5 psi spring will be able to double to 10 psi. 10 psi can make about 20 psi. Ect. Last issue would be install error by clocking the turbo wrong and binding the gate actuator.

In this case reference was directly to compressor housing without any ebc etc. inbetween confirmed that this happened with two turbos. I would understand that this could happen if line was too long, leaky, plumbed incorrectly with a 4 port solenoid etc. but in this case was a new silicone line of about 20cm in length sooo yeah. Preload was as set by garrett and then reduced by myself to 2-3mm

4h ago is devious, nice video!!! I’m actually thinking of getting a bigger turbo for my 2002 20V 1.8t audi A3. I gotta give some love to some other stuff first but I can’t deny I wanna give it a bit more power

[@throttlebuddies6356]

Have had a lot of experience with 1.8ts mamba does make some great hybrid turbos for the 1.8t plattform at a reasonable price if you dont wanna go for the g25 route

Wann geht’s mit der 160ps Serienmotor Serie weiter 😊?

[@throttlebuddies6356]

Dauert leider noch was.

Ha ha .. the clip for the video .. I actually have a rod I kept that is s shaped in both directions (left to right and front to back) and it was from a 28psi spike 😅 , but I will say , it still drove another 8 miles to get me home with the bent rod 😅.. now ya know I am doing 2 bar , but I have been trying what we talked about and seams to be getting more spicy , but Deff needs to make det can b4 go too far .. but yeah, man , I love how ya always share the knowledge with the community .. and that ya still do 1.6 on speeduino 😅 cuz that what I run ... anyways peace and love brotha , keep it rad , stay safe , and build on .. l8r

as long as itsjust bent and didnt put a hole in the block its fine lol, yeah 2 bar on stock rods at lower rpm not that great of an idea lol. though it is posible to run that with a large turbo at high rpms. ive seen stock bottom end BP4Ws make 450 whp

@@throttlebuddies6356 I got lucky and did not hurt block ,but yeah now fully forged bottom end and port and polish head .. next Is heavy dbl springs so I have a dead line of 9k so I can safely set a 8500 limiter , and I got a custom intake and oversized tb, but my turbo manifold is not best at all , so that should be my next priority tbh .. but I did take your advice and dropped to 28psi (not quite the 25 u recommended but lol) and played with timing a degree or two , and you are deff right .. my timing is super conservative.. every degree I add I can almost say I feel the increase in torque lol... but yeah bro this series your doing is awesome for the community.. and hopefully it helps connect more of us miata/mx5 brethren .. maybe .. anyways .. I want to see a update on your builds brotha .. once you are fully settled into the new shop ..I think that would be a good vid for you to showcase some of your own work aswell as connect to maybe a wider community, cuz I feel your channel deff deserves to reach out and grow brotha .. peace and love bro or I will keep rambling lol (I'm ADHA my bad 🤭)
