Boost Solenoid wiring issues...? NO BOOST AND SOME CREEPING!
The setup was running fine a few months ago and then we changed shells when the setup was purchased.
JDM LS/V
JE 9.5.1 Pistons
Eagle Rods
ACL Bearings
Micro Crank
GSR Head
Ti Springs n Retainers
ITR Cams
Basic Turbo Kit Pieced together. 35R 1000cc RC
Tuned on P75 Converted to VTEC Neptune PWM Boost By Gear
In 1st gear the car revs strong to about 5000 RPM under full throttler and builds 5-9 lbs of boost but hits like a rev limiter....or boost cut.
Second gear under full throttle the boost climbs to 9 PSI around 3500 at around 4500-5000 it spiked to about 19lbs of boost which it started picking up speed fast! then it hits a wall around 5500.
Third gear under full throttle the car sounds like the turbo is spooling like **** to about 9000 RPM but its hesitating to make power and it feels like the car is missing and cutting in and out at 5000 it rev limits
By now I just shut it down. This is with the AEM Boost solenoid connected to a 12V from battery and A11.
Then tried using a switch for 12V Ground and Loading the Boost Solenoid with the switch on. Still the same.
I am 100% sure vacuum is good and solenoid is good I can blow through it when switched on.
The car is building a consistant 9lbs of boost and blowing off hard!
Under 75% throttle the car in 1st gear revs past 5000 RPM to about 7500 and VTEC engages.
It seems under partial throttle the car revs perfectly fine since boost isnt really being made.
NO CELs
