Anyone located around Cleveland, Ohio?
I'm having some problems with my turbo setup on my Seven. I've been working on it with a MegaSquirt 3, I've looked over everything, my dad has, and so has my buddy, but no luck. The most psi the 1.8 is getting with a Super 16G is the high 2s. I've looked over everything, disconnected the BOV, looked for leaks.... No clue. I'm going to try deleting the intercooler and see if that fixes it, but other than a leak there, I can't figure it out.
Anyone around my area? I live around Cleveland/Youngstown, Ohio.

P.S. my build log is here.

He's being silly. It's a reference to That 70s Show.

That's a good starting point for you.

I've driven it, right before and right after finishing the turbo plumbing. No noticable different, and with that size turbo compared to that size of engine, I'd notice the difference, even at 7psi.
I've used both the gauge on TunerStudio going off of the MAP, and a physical boost gauge, both very close together. The first run never reached 1psi. The second didn't reach 3. Both were up to 5500rpm.

Well, tonight, I took off the intercooler and BOV, replumbed it temporarily, and enlongated the bolt holes for the wastegate actuator, to allow it to be closer to completely closed. It's still a tiny bit from completely closed, but...
GOT BOOST! I made a short run, mostly in 3rd gear as suggested, and had a top RPM of 5400, with 6.3psi boost. That's right about where I was aiming for, about all the wastegate will allow without the EBC (which is temporarily unplugged), and there's still another 2000rpm to go.
I think I need to find someone that can tune it on the dyno, either that or run VE.
Will post map soon.
