Electronic waste gate TD

[DMCTurbo]

Do you have 4bar map sensor? 3bar “should” be good over 20, but not 30 from what I understand.

Pretty sure I ran a 4bar with my stock turbo but I think a 3bar is good up to 30psi. You really need to know what you're doing for this install because 1 hose in the wrong location could cause major overboost.

Search for my "Stage 6 build" thread I'm pretty sure I took pictures of my install. Assuming you have a TD wastegate your crack should be 11 lbs.

Ok thanks, yes TD tunes, most upgrades from TD/Gap flasher with jukebox, iPad with data logger and boost control, all the stage 4+ upgrades like header, fuel pump, aem fuel control etc. Tapp button style primary, stock secondary with upgraded spring/rollers, 22 tooth top gear with roller bearings from Hurricane, and some stuff from precision efi like ez oil change... Chassis upgrades like greasable driveshaft inner tunnel bearing and procross solid shaft for skid. I’m sure I’m forgetting some things, but if you have any other recommendations, I hope to have the new upgrades finished finally this week if I can get the WASTEGATE done. Everything else but the testing ready to go. Work has been insanely busy, hard to find the time to get it all back together. I truly appreciate the assistance!!

Yes, I did most upgrades last two years, installed fuel pump and header this summer, ran great. Just getting this WASTEGATE is being difficult. I honestly can’t recall, but I believe in the first upgrade I went up to the 3 bar from stock which I think is 2 bar, but for where mine is heading (like yours), we need 4 bar for any boost over 27 I think Mike said… I think my hoses are good, just need to get a cap for the one nipple that was supposed to come in the box but didn’t. When looking over your stage 6 notes, I thought I read that you drilled out something on your turbo? Was that for this install or for something else? I didn’t even know the programmable/adjustable boost programming was out in 2018?? Thought it just came out in the last couple years? To get the turbo out, I removed the two bottom bolts and disconnected all hoses but it doesn’t budge, since I can’t work on it until tomorrow, do you recall how many bolts hold the turbo in? I’ll look closer tomorrow, definitely looks like the best way but my crack pressure (brake) pump isn’t coming till Monday… Thank you, I’ll try to take lower image photos to post.

There are 3 bolts under the turbo that bolt to the bracket arm. Easiest to remove the arm which has 2 bolts on each end.

Yes easiest way as Fatchance said.

Drill out the restrictor in this.

I'll will add, the 2 rear bolts are captive, but the forward 2 have nuts on the backside so it takes a little patience with those ones.

Is restriction right at the end where hose barb is? Drill it out to what size?

Its been a while. Pretty sure its right at the end. You can see the restrictor inside. You need to drill it to the size it is before the restrictor. Don't recall the exact drill bit size.

Dereck I thought the oil restrictor needed to be drilled out on the banjo bolt, but Maybe that is only necessary on the Turbo Technics kit?

I don't remember doing that on either kit to be honest.

Lol, a few hours and I’m still trying to fit it back in. What a pain! Hope to finish tomorrow.

The "restriction" on the stock turbo is not banjo bolts. The "restriction" is down in turbo housing just before center bearing (machined in by IHI, or whoever is machining the housing). Does no good to drill out banjo bolts. The 998 has plenty of oil pressure. From my experience, no additional oil is needed (on stock turbo). Don't know anything about Turbo Technics kit.

The Turbo Technics turbo is a turbo upgrade offered by Hurricane. Oil supply is insufficient for that turbo with the OEM set up.

From their web site:

"The Hurricane Turbo Tech Kit is exchanged with your stock turbo. The stock turbine housing is machined to fit the new Hurricane Turbo Tech cartridge and compressor. "

"It is also necessary to modify the stock oil inlet banjo bolt by drilling the hole to 3.5mm to allow the necessary oil flow required into the turbo. The stock oil hose from the engine to turbo is reused with the modified banjo bolt."

Wow, I didn’t drill anything, but just wanted it running and it is but not sure where to plug in the boost control? Plugged in the intake because it fit, but SD_22 code… as for drilling, the turbo housing does need machining if you only replace the guts with the 9 blade impeller vs the 10 blade (from Turbo Parts Canada from what I read)… getting snow tonight, hope to post pics tomorrow once I figure out making smaller file size. lol
