Maybe you guys can help answer some questions i got. I put on my new setup and we wanted to see if the turbo would spool or not. All i put on was the manifold, turbo, and wastegate, with no vaccum hoses connected. Technically it should boost a lil bit, like 1 or 2 pounds right? I rev it a lil bit and i can see the turbine spin a lil, but it wont spool yet. I dont know if my wastegate is broken or not either, i think i might just connect the hoses and see if my wastegate really needs to be connected in order to get spool, but i just always thought if you have at least some exhaust hitting it, that it should spool up. any thoughts?

 

put it all the way together than try patience and u will be rewarded good luck

 

im gonna try putting everything the way it was on my old setup, but while i try that, any other comments from anyone else?

Put it all together than try....ive learned these kinda of things over the years...you wouldnt put a motor half way together and try to start it would you?
