Hi Guy's
I've
received my E-Boost controller from TurboSmart. It's a nice looking unit with a
very complete install package. I removed my panel last night and brought it home
to fit this gauge in and will now head out to the airport to finish the install.
However after reading the manual, there is no mention at all that is controlling
based on absolute pressures rather than differential pressure. The guy I talked
to on the phone assured me that it does, but you know what salesman can be
like.....
I haven't
yet received my new wastegate actuator (ups delayed as they didn't have my phone
#), so I won't be able to test the E-Boost yet.
Changing the
wastegate is going to be a real pain. The wastegate itself is very accessible
but of the 2 mounting bolts, one is under the compressor, just out of reach of a
wrench, so will require removal of the turbo unit, which means the exhaust pipe,
intercooler, oil & coolant lines, etc... aaaarrgh. I'll see if I can't
modify the bracket to use 2 more accessible bolts, in case I ever have to do
this again.
