turbo ls help!
Turbod an ls yesterday. went to fire starts on first kick but has NO POWER. timing is 100% on. running rc 440 and hondata s100 with boost option for management. car has seriously less power than stock! WTF! Off idle 3k-6k car feels strong but will not enter boost! any help needed! last 2 ideas are lack of FMU or lack of fuel pump. any help is helpful!

set-up is a drag turbo kit, custom 3" down pipe and waste gate dump tube as one piece, hondata s100, rc 440's, golden eagle vacuum block on stock b18b1. right now running straight wastegate spring no boost controller.

Re: turbo ls help!
is your setup tuned? You have hondata on there but it doesnt necessarily mean you are tuned for your setup.
if youre not, i would go and get tuned asap.
do you have a boost gauge? does your car make boost?
if not, check for vacuum leaks.

unfortunately not my car helping a buddy out. the guy he bought the kit from said the s100 was tuned for 10 pounds and he hasnt bought a boost gauge yet so i kinda working in the dark a little bit on other peoples assumptions!

shitty deal for him.
1. tell him to get a fricken boost gauge, theyre like what 40 bucks? cmon man how cheap does it have to be.
2. get a real tune right away.
do those two and come back
