NJ Is there anybody willing to help me diagnose my twin turbos??

I need help. I have tried to do most of the troubleshooting using this.

Troubleshooting

It would be a lot easier with two people. Especially if your knowledgable.

I can drive to you. This car is not a mess. All new vac lines and new solenoids from group buy. Solenoids have been recocated to by abs system.

I don't get any turbo at wot from standing position... I think it has to do with something on the turbos themselves. Like an actuator.

I need somebody else to give me a hand!


Thank you

And it's operated by a vacumm and soleniod valve, if no power is on it then it won't open the wastegate and actuator arm. check the green soleniod under the ium front section.

I didnt even know I had some replies. I guess email notifications not working. I have to check and see in Im getting power to the solenoids… I have good vacuum around 17??at idle. I have a boost gage I get my second turbo to 10 psi most of the time and have gotten my first turbo on a rare occasion.

I have trouble shot every thing but electric and the waste gate and actuator on the turbo its self.

I am not refreding to vacuum at idle, the seq turbo is operated by soleniod which tranlate the vacuum to the actuators or other assoicated parts to get the turbo spooling, might be that the wastegate is open. Check the rod and actuator that connects to that.
