Insufficient boost with PFC
Insufficient boost with PFC
I'm in a bit of a jam, and i tryed searching and did not find what im looking for so here goes.
I just installed a 3 inch stainless full exhaust with an apexi N1 muffler. The downpipe and midpipe come from Ebay. The only difference that i see between the HKS one and this one, is the shape of the downpipe close to the exhaust manifold.
So i droped in a PFC too, i reseted it, and left it work at idle speed for 15 minutes, then anoter 15 minutes with A/C on.
Then i took it for a drive, all went pretty well. I thought. But i realized a day later, that i only had about 5-6 psi. I looked into the boost settings, which the 1st one was .80kg/cm2 and something like .70kg/cm2 in secondary stage. and another setting was there that i tryed and did not change anything.
I monitored the boost spike with the commander, and i found out that the boost didnt go higher than .37kg/cm2. (it showed me that measure..) So .. i checked all my hoses, see if one was cracked, and everything seems to be in order.
If anyone could help me out, there isnt too much poeple around here who knows the rotary engine or its features. So i would really appreciate all the help i can get. Some kind of check list to see.
Oh and i try disconnecting my wastegate, and did not see any improvement in PSI.
thanks
