its a db fab manifold. Few others i have seen had one and it didnt creep this bad. i might venture into another gate, or an AFI manifold.



i even had the wastegate ported out larger.

Last year it would hold 17psi but that was with a 2 1/4 exaust creating a lot of back pressure.

Wait, it's creeping 20psi or creeping to 20psi? Because there's a big difference, lol. I can see why it would creep though.

The mani is probably the culprit. I will start a thread for the jdl design stuff threthread

well today it seemed to work better. the tuner worked the boost controller a little more, and we got to add some timing to it along with the meth. it stays in the 15psi range from 4900-7000, then creeps to 17 by 8000... then i was just scared lol

[boosted_teg]

if all else fails, ill sell it and buy a new manifold, or buy another wastegate to have it welded on the bottom

I would save the money of buying another gate and go with a well known and r&d'd manifold like AFI or FULL-RACE. I've seen a lot of people try and modify the mani's with little success.

Got mag tuned today. Couldn't figure out why I was over boosting even with the settings on the hondata boost controller on the lowest. was seeing 18lbs when i wanted to get tuned to 10-12

so we just turned off the boost control and tuned off my WG spring.

Any anys why it wasnt working?

All vac line are hooked up correctly.

Well whats going on with the car ? Is it fixed ? you buy a different manifold ? wg ?
