alright here goes
"According to the official Mazda test procedure, boost should be as follows: Drive to third gear with normal acceleration Accelerate from 35 MPH at WOT until passing 4500 rpm A slight and smooth increase in power should be felt at approximately 4500 rpm. This will be about 65 MPH..." alright now my question, if you have added the following- dp, high flow cat, cat back, intake, resized wastegate orifice- would the 2nd turbo kick in still at 4500 or would the timing be off due to the upgrades. the reason that i am asking is that my 2nd turbo kicks in at around 5000 or so in third gear and is strong as hell so might i have a vaccum leak or is the timing off due to upgrades? i know people on this forum know a hell of a lot more than me, and if anyone with similar mods has the same characteristics or different? |
are you running a boost controller?
|
Your transition should be at 4500 no matter what.. Unless you alter it with a PFC..
Someone correct me if I drank too much coffee.. |
unless he's running a boost controller t'd to the wastegate and precontrol.
edit: then the precontrol won't open till it feels full boost. |

so chances are i may have a vaccum leak? anyone with similar setups have this problem?
i was going to hook up my profec b spec 2 this weekend but ran into the age old discussion of wastegate only or w/g and precontrol, which is the best way to plumb the b spec 2?i know alot of questions, sorry |
Check the butterfly valve in the y-pipe. Mine was sticking and causing the transition to be late. I replaced it with one I bought used and it fixed the problem. To test, take the hose off the actuator and use pressure (or vacuum, I can't remember) to open the valve. The mechanism was sticking on mine, holding it up in the middle for a moment. It should open smoothly and quickly.

|
IF I remember correct at startup the rod should move I think to closing point and st shut off it return's back to open position.
