I'm not leaving it just bothers me when people ask for our advice and disregard it as jibberish .I am by no means any expert or guru I myself have a lot to learn and do so everyday .http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atretf9u-Mc

Yea I agree. It sucks. A few can ruin it for everyone. And everyone can ruin it for a few. You definitely gave enough experience to be an connisseur in specific areas. We all do. What makes this a community is sharing our areas of expertise/experience with others. And if we don't have an answer, we use our knowledge to help figure it out.

Thanks for the video, I'm going to make that and try it with a bike pump. Repped!

Wow you guys... I'm really not pushing away your advice as jibberish, but if that's what you think, then fine. I frankly don't care.

Mods please delete this thread. It's useless here.

So then what are you doing if you're not pushing advice away? Reread the last few pages of your thread, because that's pretty much exactly what you're doing. And then to say mods please delete this thread... you sound like a chick. Whats the deal man?

I've tried explaining myself, did no one read that massively long post? Also no one has yet to explain to me, how a leak anywhere other than in the line from the pressure source to the wastegate would cause boost creep, please enlighten me. Also, Mark, I have met you, and you are a really nice guy, with a lot of knowledge, but creeping 4 psi at rev limit is not anything like creeping 14 psi on a 4 psi spring by 7500 rpm. Creep starts early, like 5k rpms.

As I said I'm going to try to fix the dumptube routing a tad probably tomorrow, if that doesn't do anything, when I install my solenoid I will be going back to my SS AN lines so that will ensure there are no leaks anywhere, as that will require me to replace all fittings and lines in relation to boost creep. Also, I'm not getting out of the game, if the kit sells, I'm going to buy a PRL kit.

Just seems to me like your missing something you have to be as you didn't have these issues before and 14 psi of creep is extreme indeed .I am a nice guy and the only knowledge I have is from my own experience. As I said I had several leaks in my system at my intercooler piping several push locks . I am by know means a guru of any sort and am generally best solving issues "hands on" .I am sure this is frustrating (esp on and 8 th gen) as it would be for anyone but don't give up man hang in there and keep trying you'll get it. That is if the kit is still on the car .

You are mistaken. I did have the issue before! And did all of the tests on he wastegate I could with all different kinds of lines. That's what I've been trying to say! Of the roughly 2 weeks I have driven with with kit on the car (aside from breaking the clutch in) it did not creep for 2 days in the middle of all of those days of driving

Installed my solenoid with AN SS lines and fittings. Car still creeps like a boss. Gonna have the manifold modified ASAP to fix the problem.

Sorry to hear your having such problems. It's been a long haul for you and that kit

Ya my plan is to modify the wastegate neck so it is more flow friendly. I want to modify it to look something like this:

This is how it currently is (disregard the red lines):

I'm thinking that paired with a larger gate like a 44mm or maybe even a 60mm (if that will fit) will greatly reduce this creep.

Did you think about flipping the wastegate exit thats on the mani? Looks like itd do nicely.
