Anyone know how much this would cost from Deadbolt or such? I'd love to ensure that I never see boost creep again. Especially after my experience at Little Tally this past Thursday.
Well I had a blast, but first 3 runs were learning to shift around boost creep :wtc: By the end of the day (4th and 5th run), I had it down. It was just so cold there (<30 degrees) that my poor car with the full 3" out sans EM was having some trouble. This equated to me never being able to hit full throttle. P&P doesnt seem worthwhile on the vf39, however, ceramic coating does.
u experience boost breep when under load, the boost 'creeps' up towards +infinity fairly quickly... here's my understanding of what causes this... someone correct me if im mistaken exhaust gases flow over the turbine on the hot side of the turbo causing the turbine to spin... this spins the turbine on the cold side through a shaft and builds boost... the wastegate (on the hot side) can be opened to allow exhaust gas to bypass the turbine in order to control boost... if the wastegate can't flow the desired amount of gas, then more gas flows over the turbine and builds more than desired boost
sounds correct. once the build up is too great, the ECU attemps to correct by cutting fuel to the engine (instant stop) and you have a sudden surge, causing an extreme (but very short) period of leaning out the engine.
There was a HUGE thread on NASIOC on DIY that had pics and exactly where to remove the material. You can do it yourself with a dremel. Takes no more than 10 seconds once the exhaust side housing is removed. Mine works great. Also, All that cracking talk is pointless. No one has proven that they have a loss in performance because of a hairline crack either.
Trey would you be interested in giving me a hand at some point ? Perhaps during the install day? :bigthumb:
...hence enlarging the opening. lol Sure Alex, you take it off and I'll show you where to remove the material, hell I'll do it if ya want. It's easy.
