K14 laggy - sherman306 - 23-02-2014
Don't know what other people's experience is with the k14 but mine just feels really laggy like.not getting.to full boost till 2900rpm and no boost at all before 2000 like boost gauge doesn't move maybe it's normal just would like to know what other people have experienced
RE: K14 laggy - Tom - 23-02-2014
Probably have a boost leak.
RE: K14 laggy - Danny2009 - 23-02-2014
2900!, my tdo4 was pulling 40psi before 2500rpm
As Tom says got to be a boost leak
RE: K14 laggy - ADV_93 - 23-02-2014
You say boost leak...
I'm running a K14 at 22 psi and mine pulls hard at about 3k. Boost gauge begins to move about 1800 rpm though. No boost leaks, regular services and maintenance etc.
If you're running a Lucas it's because they have to gather enough exhaust pressure to spool the turbo via the over fuelling, so i get loads of smoke, then hits 2.5-3k and it takes off.

I've got a bosch with ground lda small amount off boost smoke average on boost smoke I will be fmicing poss this weekend so any boost leaks will be rectified
RE: K14 laggy - Tom - 23-02-2014
There shouldnt be any on boost smoke. Makes it look broken and your just melting everything. Should be a haze at the most, never understood why anyone thinks coaling all the time is awesome, its absolutely horrid when someone in front of you does it, everyone in your cars choking and shit!

Are you not mistaking a stage 1 on an XUD for a map on a HDi?
Most Lucas set ups smoke as standard no matter what you do to them. My d turbo smokes off boost, most XUD do. Even when on boost it smokes a little. Bosch pumps smoke a little less. But it's an old design engine with no electronics.
I've seen mapped HDi's smoke a fair bit too.
RE: K14 laggy - sherman306 - 23-02-2014
Mines got abit much smoke I'll admit that I've reduced off boost smoke when I put my ground lda but it does sound a little boost leaky
RE: K14 laggy - sherman306 - 23-02-2014
What's the best way to check for leaks in the standard set up?

you shouldn't be coaling on boost . . . .as said maybe a slight haze but no more and no need either, just badly set up if it does . .
RE: K14 laggy - Tom - 23-02-2014
Those hdis that coal are just f*cked. It should be as near to clean as possible otherwise you look stupid and your likely to melt your turbine off lol

Notice how i said "smokes a little"
It's barely a haze to be honest, the boost cleans almost all the smoke up. The car's nippy so i can't say it's bad at all.

To a degree, a straight pipe helps to keep the EGT's down tbh
RE: K14 laggy - sherman306 - 24-02-2014
Right so on the drive to work this morning I've paid attention to when I get smoke it's more at around 5-8psi when it's on full boost full throttle there is the most tiny hint of smoke how can I reduce this low boost/off boost smoke?

fit a ground lda pin and control your right foot, don't just mash it into the carpet . .
RE: K14 laggy - sherman306 - 24-02-2014
Ground lda done haha and yeah just find myself changing gear alot to try and keep in boost away from smoke
RE: K14 laggy - mr_fish - 24-02-2014
Are you running a top mount? Only places they will leak really is D seal (common), pipe split off the turbo or inlet gasket blown.
RE: K14 laggy - sherman306 - 24-02-2014
Yeah tmic for now
RE: K14 laggy - ADV_93 - 24-02-2014
I barely ever floor the car straight away, usually up the revs slowly with my right foot, then when the revs hit around 2.7/2.8 give it a foot full, gives you the best pre-spool
RE: K14 laggy - sherman306 - 24-02-2014
I'm guna try bringing my max fuel down slowly over the next few days see what happens
