wanting to up boost
 

wat is the threshold for our turbo and heads ... and is there other ways of raising boost other then a boost elbow ... mainly diy style that i can do at home for cheap ? ... wanting to get a bit more power

take silencer ring out. i have boost elbow, i think they only like 20 bucks. otherwise ive heard of ppl complety plugging it off, cant say for sure how much boost it can handle but
brother has vp truck hit 45psi many times pulling 10k. any thing up to 35 shuld be safe

how do you plug it off ? ... could be fun just to mess around for a day

pull hose off turbo where the elbow would go put a plug in the hose and put plug where the hose came off, try that. im not sure if pulling the silencer ring out actually helps, but it sounds nicer.:w2:

ya i pulled the ring before my boost gauge went in ... but didnt notice any difference ... wat would you use to for a plug ?

a bolt... but def watch the boost gauge if u do this

Silencer ring wont add anything power wise but is sure does make it sound better. Most use a plug of some sorts, or crimp the hose off. Anything over 35psi on the stock HX35 is just pulling in hot air.

so just pull the line from the back of the afc housing and shove a bolt in it ?

most definently sounds better with ring out:tu:

no off the bottom front of turbo.

underneith where the inlet to turbo is

there is nothing there ... am i missing something ... its a brass 90 elbow right ... i see nothing ... and the only line on my waste gate runs from it to the back of the afc housing
