Found out why the code was being thrown. The boost was flying to 15psi. its a 7 psi delta gate
come home after figuring out that boost was going to 15 psi. pull in the drive way, start hearing some drip, drip, drip noise. look down - its oil. get under it - put a nice size roundish crack in the tranny case.
then i go to move it in the garage. battery is dead
i just cant win

after 5 days of boost - im thinking about pulling the turbo, selling the car, and starting over.

just had to bitch
later

Burke, deltagates really suck. there infamous for letting boost spike man. just go ahead fix the tranny and get a tial wastegate.

dont give up yet.

 

Yet another example of "Do it right the first time" Sorry about your tranny, but don't give up learn from your mistakes.

 

do it right the first time????
you mean the wastegate??

oh and im not gonna give up completely. if i pull the turbo/etc and sell the car. im gonna get another one and turbo that one..... boost is just too addictive

 

yes. sell that thing and get a WASTEGATE.
no deltagate man.

Yeah, I bet the prices are gonna drop pretty low now that the 38mm is replacing it

 

i was ognna get one asap, but i figured this thing would hold me over. guess, i'll blame everything thing on the delta gate its already off my car and i dont plan on every putting it back on.
i bought it off inspyral and he said it was working fine for him. guess not..........

 

try replacing the map sensor, spiking that many times with the stock map sensor could ***** the diaphram.

 

exact same thing happened to me last summer. cept my hole was in the block.

 

i replaced the map sensor too, damn delta gate I HATE THEM!!!!!
