0-0-11 boost pattern... (no primary)

Ok... I know about there having to be 8psi for the secondary to come on... so there must be pressure in the pressure tank... but on my gauge there is 0psi on primary turbo and around 4500 the secondary comes alive and strong as usual.

I would go nonseq but I like the feeling of the seq turbos.

A little background... I just got done doing a full hose job... replacing gaskets and cleaning stuff up.

I'm wondering what EXACTLY I should look for or test?

This is an excellent site to troubleshoot your turbochargers.

I had this problem before. There was a kink in the hose going to the Charge Control valve. So it would stay open before 4500 RPM when it should be closed (and boost would leak out of the Charge Relief Valve, then at 4500 RPM the CRV would close and all hell would break loose.

Check your Charge Control Valve and the hoses related to it.

Since you replaced all the hoses. Was it like that before the job? If it was o.k before then you got something all messed up.

p.s. or it is a shot primary turbo.
I kinda figured that much
I know what it is..... you don't want to help because I'm denying the nonseq!!!! I see how it is!!!!

Thanks Wade!..... I can only hope it's somthing that easy! I will check it when I get home.... I'll also check and see maybe the CRV is just sticking open in general.
