Don't know where the hell it's coming from. I've tightened all the boots down, the clamps on my ppe BIV, everything... only hitting 22lbs at full throttle. Should be touching 28. Anybody got an idea?

What are you reading boost with?

 

[Northwest Coal Roller]

how are you reading your boost? edge or mechanical?

 

[ob_1jr]

You are reading off a boost gauge right? How is it installed? With a T in the line to the wastegate? Which side of the PPE valve are you on? The wastegate side or manifold side?

 

[BHand89]

Reading with a glowshift mechanical gauge. Tapped the gauge into the y-bridge. and the ppe valve is in the rubber hose after the wastegate, just like the instructions told me.

just an FYI your tuning from atp is set up for no BIV. i had one on mine and i blew a turbo cause it will hit 35+. as for the leak idk what to tell ya.

 

[BHand89]

You sure? Cause I told Rob I had one prior to him sending me my tunes...

 

[evansdmax]

I only hot about 23 with tuning from Georgia diesel and a ppe biv? Is something wrong with me to? I am wondering to

 

[jmaz268]

This is the reason I don't recommend the BIV....

Have you ever hit 28? maybe not fueling harding enough, i can generally atleast peg at 28 or so for a little bit

 

[evansdmax]

I think I am fueling plenty.... I'm using a scan gauge that plugs into the obd2?

Went to the track a couple weeks ago and could've swore I hit 27 or so... gonna data log tomorrow and see what peak boost is. I'm starting to think maybe my gauge is eff'd up but then again idk cause I feel a power loss as of late

I'm having the same issue on my truck. I only see about 22 to 24 psi with the BIV, but it did increase from about 18-20psi that I have before the BIV

 

[marshalldmax]

the place i get my tunes from, gets his from rob i beleive to, an when i had the PPE BIV in i was gettin 30+ n opening the wastetgate.. took it out and no problems, averageing rond 25 on 150 setting, but gonna detune some so dont hafta do traNNY yet

 

[DuraTitus]

I think it is normal to tell you the truth.

My 2002 will hit 28-30 PSI with ease, whereas my 2001 will not go over 22-23 psi on the same tuning. - It will not go above 23 psi no matter what tuning it has, even with the waste-gate disengaged so it absolutely will not open.

 

[BHand89]

It was the Boost increase valve. Took it off, and made my own and now I'm boosting close to 30.

 

[TowU4Free]

How did you make one? this seems to be a common thing, one guys truck will reach 32 and the other only 22. mine maxs at 24ish typically...id like to know how you made one.. i know it can be done... im getn a new boost gauge with max boost recall soon ill be able to know for sure what im hitting.. i run a max effort tune everyday on mine, no lift pump.. so i think i should easily hit 30 but from what i hear.. every truck is diffrent.. the less restriction in the intake and exhaust ive been told means less boost numbers.?? hell idk! lol

 

[nsolimini]

Full throttle, mine will only hit about 28... Are you sure you didn't the valve installed backwards? Arrows towards the waste gate!!

 

[evansdmax]

Made a biv?
