Turbo question
Just cruising like 2100-2200 rpm... The top is a 62/14 I'm not sure what exh wheel is on the 475. Doesn't really feel like it's spoiling as fast as it should. Real smoky at low rpm till spool. Once they light tho hold on for the ride. Wastegate has a clamp holding the line shut right now and it runs 54 55 psi WOT. That's edge juice on hot unlock, 150hp big dawgs, and hotrod vp. Sounds to me like it could use more fuel, but to be honest I like how it runs with the EJ on lvl 3. It's MUCH smoother at WOT than on 6. Lvl 6 has rpm and boost fluctuations at WOT.

Yeah. You might not have caught in that last post that's 55 psi lvl 6 with the gate hose clamped off. I clear all my smoke at WOT also so I know I can use more fuel. I just don't understand why it would run cooler... There a guy on YouTube I found with my exact setup running 200ddp's and he can't break 1230 degrees. Weird

I didn't read the correct then yeah you need fuel because that should be making more boost. I believe they run cooler because you actually have the fuel to spool the turbos and make them efficient. you could also drop to less bottom turbo too but I think sticks are a lil cheaper and less work. I would also do a 3 piece manifold because the stock ones like to crack and it's possible you already have some cracks

I guess to me Im not a fan of the water meth due to the fact its not maintenance free. What I mean is its not like sticks drop them in one time and forget about them. Whereas the water/meth is like a propane bbq its nice when there full but your always going back to the store for a refill. Kinda get what I mean.
