Ok guys so finaly got round to sorting out the dodgy waste gate arm on my DT and managed to get the boost up 20psi, but.................. and theres always a but, its shoots up to 90 (warter temp) now iv hard wiered a slim line fan with a switch, and the temp still hits 90 straight away with that running on full bore, all i basicaly want to know is this normal? (also it is FMIC)
Part 2!
Iv wound the waste gate down the thread about 20mm give or take, jumped in took it for a spin and i was only getting 16 psi, so i wound the boost compensater out more (lucus) and that took me up to 20psi, so i may have more to go yet on the fuel pump, but the thing is it now smoke like a bitch and i dont want to make it any worse.
Now is the only way over this fitting a bosch ? or can is there somthing i can do to get the presure up and the smoke down on the lucus untill i get round to putting my bosch on?
