New DP, low boost

[Scoobum]

This is what I use...orange silicone. Stays on if you decide to port it...and is easy to follow. Pic is my 6262. Yeah...it seals. That's the flange gasket from RJC Racing. Yes...those are new studs as well. No pre turbo leaks.

Exhaust wheel is white...damn near think Scoob's got the fueling dialed in. But you can't do it with NB...or can you?

Ok some pics of the puck situation....i n my opinion it's ok.... one is with too much silicone, wiped it off and just re tapped with what was left on puck, one was before I started, no carbon tracks so I wiped it clean and you can se the witness mark from the puck

Trouble with pics....hang in there

Looks good. Steve's alky theory is prolly correct. Any word from Julio?

[Shimy87]

not yet, he must have a life and is enjoying a weekend in stead of waiting for idiots like me to call him.... I will try him again Monday.....Tha nks!!

Shimy, I had an issue with the biggie puck when I got it. It was hanging up on the inside of the flange if I pulled it all the way down. I hit the inside edge of the flange with the die grinder so it would swing freely. Check it...mite be making it stick open a tad.

[Shimy87]

yes I thought of that also looking at the pic of the witness mark, VERY close to the flange......ge tting sick of putting this prick on and off and on and off....looks like off again to do that, just to eliminate all possibilities.

Thanks for the input!

Time to port the WG hole.

Any chance we can get you to step up to a WB02 that reads out in Lambda?

How would that help my situation

[motorhead]

Well if nothing else when you do get your boost building problem sorted out, you will be able to better control it.

I got a sweet Canadian Loonie that says if you tweak the puck arm "more shut" it will seal better.  Your gooped up silicone trace looks weak.

[Shimy87]

What looks weak? Seems to lay as flat as possible, even left a perfect circle in the metal of the turbo before

It didn't fully transfer on the thin smear.  The big goop one is just filling in thousandths of an inch of misalignment.

I am only speaking from experience here - I had a slow boost building issue for years with my Mease DP, did lots of fruitless arbitrary testing trying to fix it, turns out the puck arm (at the flapper) wasn't sealing properly.  10 seconds with a pair of pliers turned the car into a tire fryer.

I would have smeared antiseize paper thin around the hole and slapped the puck closed a couple of times to see if it transferred to the puck....
