the setup is a profec b with a deltagate. the thing is that the boost just keeps rising...i installed everything the way the gressy site illustarted it. the balance is at 12 o'clock and the lo and hi is all the way to minimum. i tried changeing the selector settings on the back but it still does the same thing.

 

deltagates blow
get the TiAL!

 

another uninformed post. i've never had problems out of the deltagates. anyway, back to the problem. run the out on the profec to the top port, in from the manifold. side port on the deltagate to manifold and setup the dip switches on the back of the unit accordingly. then set both ***** to 0, and gain to 12 o clock, that should start you about wastegate spring boost. pm me if you have any more problems. i have the same setup.

 

thanks..let me go test it out now.

 

its not working any other suggestions?

 

Try the compressor/manifold to the in of the profec and the out to the side of the wg.

I have a tial and leave the top open to atm.

 

How many different ways can you hook this thing up? I'm still skeptical on when I reinstall mine. Should the "in" on the solenoid and the side of the wastegate each get their own source from the manifold?
Example: in on box to brake booster,and side of wastegate to fpr vaccum line. If you teed both of these off of on source would it make a difference? I also have no fitting on my compressor housing so hooking up the lines how some do incorporating the fitting does not apply. I've also seen threads on some people tapping the charge pipe before the throttle body too? Is this necessary? I just dont want to waste another block because of these lines not being installed correctly.

 

what jared told me to do is not working still...tried to play with the selector and its still not holding boost...im about to give up on this...anyone else got anything to suggest?

 

The proper way to hook it up is manifold pressure to the in on the greddy box and to the side port on the deltagate then the out on greddy box to the top of deltagate. I had this exact setup and it was not a problem with the boost rising however when I would drop the exhaust and run open down pipe it would creep like crazy especially in 3rd and 4th. Alot of times it isn't the boost control but it is the wastegate size to how much back pressure you have in your exhaust. If you have an exhaust on it and it still does it then see if the wastegate is working and put one vacuum line from manifold pressure to the side port of delta gate.

 

i hooked up the side of the wastgate to the out of the black box and hooked the compressor side to the in of the box...and when i ran it....it spiked all the way to 1.22 bar...about 18 pounds in a matter of seconds....

 

I would definetly try the wastegate without the boost controller. Put a line from the turbo/manifold strait to the side port of wastegate. If it still doesn't hold boost then you have other problems than the boost controller.

 

loosen the adjustment on the wastegate, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

But tossing the deltagate POS in the trash and bolting on a Tial works every single time.

 

this is how greddy website tells u to hook up an external wastegate

compressor-IN on black box
side port on wastegate-intake mani
top port- OUT on black box
control unit- intake manifold

BUT... when I had my tial, i didnt do it like this and it worked fine. I did it like this.
compressor-IN on black box
side port- OUT on black box
top port OPEN
control unit- intake manifold

that worked fine for me w/ the tial, if it doesnt work with the deltagate then i guess u have to do it the first way. when u spiked to 1.2bar did u make sure u had the controller settings all to 0/0 and had the switches on the back set for external wastegate?

 

u figure it out man?

 

TTT for j00....I need to know too

 

18 lbs !!! thats a good thing right!?!?

j/k

hope you figure it out I've had problems with the profec too.

BUMP!

 

i gave up on it...i tried so many different ways. yes...when it spiked to 18 i had all the settings to minimum and the balance **** at 12 o'clock. well thanks for all the suggestion but i already have a buyer for the unit. now im looking in to the tial wastgate...i have a drag manifold..wiill it fit?

 

did you try DIRep972's setup?

 

yup...i tried it..thats what got me the 18 pounds...

 

how much you selling for?

 

did you do the dp switches on the back of the control box?

 

You should have just taken a Dremel to the wastegate opening, or made a plate that smoothes out the air flow for the WG and tubine. Someone here solved it like that. Falcon had a similar problem if I remember right.

 

wow, old post, but I think his DRAG manifold had more to do with it than anything else.

 

I have an F-MAX with the same peroblem...its not the mani...I think it the WG...The Greddy EBC is probably accustomed to working with greddy or HKS wg, which probably work differently from the TIAL or delcraps!
