Valve lash?
I have a service manual. And I set the lash on it after rebuilding it and before starting. do I need to readjust after I've put a few miles on it? It just doesn't respond like it should. new IP, Lift pump, no codes, no smoke, starts and runs it just won't accelerate hard til it gets to about 2200 rpms. also theres not much boost til i hit 2200. idling boost sits on zero it runs about 3-5 psi between 1000 -2000 rpms when It gets to 2200. then it shoots up to 20psi and runs like a raped ape. I installed a kit in the turbo bushings, seals, thrust plate. marked the shaft and compressor wheel to keep the balance in tact. side play and end play are in tolerance. I can't help but think the turbos not spooling like it should.
