I am unfortunately invested into the SBD kit. Which for what I am into it now(replacing all most of the garbage parts that came with it) I could have bought a much higher quality kit.
The car performs well but this boost creep is getting on my nerves. I have an internal wastegate, I purchased a manual boost controller just to install inline and leave it closed I thought maybe that would help regulate boost. It's not installed yet I am waiting to get the car back from the body shop still.
I was able to adjust the wastegate to only hit 10psi(what it is supposed to do), but there was like NO Preload on the wastegate at all and it took forever to build boost..
Everyone at Speed by design says you need to port the turbo, you need to port the turbo..Well then why sell me this shit if it doesn't come ready to go..Or if you guys know its a problem...fix it for the rest of the people..They did send me a new wastegate. I haven't gotten a chance to install it. Because No matter how i adjust the wastegate it kind of just does whatever it wants which made me think this wastegate is trash. but hey it only has about 4k miles on it. I really wanted to just go external but i have been trying to mock up where i can install one and I don't see many decent options with how the manifold/downpipe are positioned.
Looks like my best options are to restrict the exhaust, or port the turbo? Should I just do both? And Adding a cat would restrict it correct?I just want to enjoy my car this summer instead of trial and error all summer.
