ok i just got my car boosted and driving and was just curious about y it kinda bucks...like when i am crusing and just have enough gas to maintain speed it jerks...i am untuned with stock injectors and the only pounding on it i did was half throttle 2nd gear till it got into a lil boost to make sure my bov worked and it was getting into boost...im running open dp and have one cel light one for o2...is it doing this bc it is untuned...

 

your 02 cel is causing ti to run poorly. Get a DP on it pronto. your car will have a solid CEL, and will be in limp mode when it realizes the o2 aint workin.

bucking is 99% chance of being the TPS out of calibration. check it's calibration and get back with us.

and how is your car getting more fuel under boost?

 

your just asking for it driving it untuned....get some kind of ems and have it tuned asap.

 

I'm driving it real easy and not goin into boost and plan on getting tuned in a week or so....

 

ttt

That pretty much sums it up. Get it tuned and your issues will likely be solved.

 

well i understand that and i am driving real careful not getting into boost what so ever...but im not gonna be able to get tuned till next weekend and this is my DD so will it be ok to drive real easy??

 

Are you even going to listen to what anyone says? You already have the kit on there, which tells me your going to drive it regardless.... so good luck.

 

i understand what everyone is saying and that wasnt my question...i was just asking if i stay OUT of boost will it be ok to drive till next weekend...yes or no?...if not could i unhook a piece of ic pipe and drive it like that?...thanks

 

If your going to unhook anything unhook the wastegate. If you unhook your charge pipe, it will prevent the engein from seeing boost, but your turbo will spool up like a ****. Will the engine last sure...... no one knows. You need to get an exhaust on it, get rid of the cel, and get it tuned.

 

thanks man that was an answer i was looking for...im getting exhaust on it this week and that will eliminate the o2 CEL....i didnt know open downpipe was harmful...anyways what u mean unhook the wastegate?....thanks again

 

he means take the wastegate arm and detach it from your wastegate flap that way all the exhaust blows by and doesnt make boost.

and to answer your question...
my tuner doesnt even want me driving my car for 5 minutes to get to his dyno... i wonder what he would think of my intelligance if i told him i was going to drive it for a week on stock injectors? haha

 

ok...im on here to learn as much as possible but i just havent figured out what is so harmful about driving my car and not getting into boost at all...i mean without going into boost my motor is exactly the same as it was not turboed...right?...like i said im just here to learn so someone please help...

You will not likely hurt your motor. However, driving with no exhaust and thus no o2 is going to make the motor run fairly rich. Short term not likely to hurt anything, long term you could.

You have to realize the majority of the people in here, have heard it all before. I was only going a week or two without boost, *you said yourself you already boosted it* i didn't have enough money i couldn't afford a tune, so on and so forth. It's just so cheap and easy to have a base map on your car when you boost, that there is no reason to do it the way you are, especially on a DD. No biggie, just unhook the waste gate arm, and you won't have to worry about boost, as much. Good luck.

P.S. no smart tuner would tell you that doing this would be a good idea, because when **** happens people are too quick to point fingers.

 

no...i have the money to get everything done its just time...i work 3rd shift so its kinda hard..imma try and get my exhaust done monday morning and fuel pump and tune done next week...thanks again for the info now here is a pic of my setup please explain the wastegate thing lol....


here is a close up

see if u can tell me by this pic...thanks

 

just take the damn spring out of the wastegate

Stop driving it until you get it tuned

--- 3rd shift, taking a bus. I think that would be kinda hard. I personally would rather blow a LS up before taking a bus that late at night. He probably in some crappy town, get shot/shanked for his launch money, and all day bus pass.

 

Ha the bus...imma just keep driving out of boost and see how it works....

 

even if you don't technicly hit boost you are still flowing CONSIDERIBLY MORE air at part throttle 10"-0" then you where n/a, thus the bucking and over all running rough ... take the wastegate spring out till its getting tuned!

 

ok ill take the wastegate spring out today....so thats gonna make it not hit any boost what so ever but should still run ok....correct...
