How do i get these egt's down
I have been dealing with high egts for a long time now and i have just had it. Today on the highway i got a nice long streach with no cars so i figured why not. dropped the hammer and off we go. At about 100, 2600-2750 rpm, 34-36psi, and it was not to the floor is was seeing 1600. And that was real quick. I bet in a 1/4 run it would get to 1900 at the rate she was going. How do i get these temps down. thanks
A good water/meth kit would help a lot, they can drop temps up to 200 degrees or so. Devil's Own Injection makes some good kits: http://www.alcohol-injection.com/
Playin with the waste gate is what I would start with personally. Does it have an adjustable boost elbow? The Phat Shafts come with them dont they? That'd be way easier then messin with the wastegate actuator.
That turbo is ment to handle 40-50 lbs perfectly, although without head studs i wouldnt wanna go over 45.
In my truck, being its my DD and work truck, I wouldnt wanna hit over 42 just to be safe.
But id see if you can get it dailed to 40ish lbs and see what that does before startin to spend $. Just my .02.
