hey guys, well someone help me out here with this situation, on level 3 on my edge juice attitude combo, my turbo only boosts to 23psi max. i thought my edge was supposed to trick my computer, and have it boost more ? but i take it my waste gate is set for 23psi? in order for me to get higher boost pressure from my stock turbo, what do i have to do ? how high can i go max to be safe ? (auto tranny) new waste gate ? what do i do BESIDES order a new turbo for you smart ***'s haha...some day i will do it, but im not rich right now...so i have to do it the poor mans way for now

 

my edge came with a little brass plug to plug up off the wastegate line. I see boost lvls in the 35psi range. A co-worker had his 97 dodge boosting to 45psi on the stock turbo and didn't have any problems with it.

 

yea but what was the plug like...fully closed off ? did it have a hole in it ? in the case i can just grab a plug from work ,sine we have a million of the brass pipe plugs and if i have to, i will drill a hole in it!

 

It had a small hole in it. But I don't think that matters cause they had me drill a hole right after it in the wastegate line.

 

hey jake can you get a pic of your mod?

 

yeah I'm a little busy this week, but for sure this weekend

 

id put the Banks big head wastegate controller on it instead of just plugging it off. The wastegate is on there for a reason....

 

now there are waste gate mods and boost foolers wuts the diffrence. which one is better? more reliable?

 

the wastegate is there for a reason but if u crank the psi up its dont mater anyway,the stock holset is not able to climb higher than 35psi,event at that rate its way past beyond efficient point

 

so do you suggest that i just wait till after i upgrade my trannsmission, and just buy a new turbo?
