JDL Turbo Issue
 
I Know its not JDL's Fault i just figured it would help if i put the kit name in the title


Hey guys i have my turbo installed and im currently tuning it through zach, but i have this issue and was wondering if anyone knows what it is, the car basically lugs at 5k rpm and does not want to go any higher even though i was told to take it up to 6800 rpm in a pull, this happens at WOT at about 5k RPM

JDL Turbo kit with gtx2860r

your tuner will be able to help, but looks like fuel cut maybe

In all seriousness, God bless properly working wastegates.

I need to figure out what’s going on with mine because it’s not dumping, I saw on the box it said 7lbs on it but I feel like it might have been wrong

I’m not too useful with wastegates because I have a SC, but isn’t there an adjustment spring?

you open it up and change the spring inside with a stiffer / weaker one but i thought it had a 7lb one inside but the box may have been wrong, so i have to take it off and find out whats going on

forgot to update this, opened up the waste gate and the diaphragm was sticking slightly and changed the spring to 5lb spring and im using an ebcs now and im hitting 7psi on the dot and its dumping correctly now

That's why overboost protection is there! :D
