Test wastegate actuator base pressure, help
 
I thought my WG issues were over, but it appears that they are still there. I ordered a 11psi WG can.

My open loop settings for testing are...
(diy ebc)
19.5Hz
10ms
inverted
closed duty% 0
open duty % 100

boost control duty table has every cell set to zero. I am under the impression that this should let me rely entirely on the WG can to control boost.

EBC is plumbed correctly and I am taking boost reading from after the IC and before TB.

I hit my boost overshoot limit at 17psi. IS it common to overshoot this much? I was datalogging at the time and the graph doesn't show the WG opened even slightly.

I set all of my duty cells to 100%, and this worked. Boosted to 1psi more than rated.

12psi feels slow compared to 16psi. Now I am ready to tune next weekend.

be careful you dont overload it.... most ebc solinoids like mac solinoids operate at maximum duty cycle of 90% and you just modulate the PW.

but if its working i guess dont mess with it...just set overboost protection.
