low RPM and boost dont get along well.
at least you built a completed system.

The Turbos are too small. i should have gotten T4's, but i figured these would make boost off of idle and almost act like a supercharger




Ya, sounds good up until you hit 3k at WOT and stop making power/start detonating like crazy .

No comment on turbine size,but are those oil feed lines supported?Vibration induced cracking and leakage would ruin your day quickly. I ran mine with braided -6 line to be safe.

not that you would want to bandaid or rig it all up but i wonder if you could us a bleedoff valve to get rid of some of the exhaust before the turbo's.

btw, it makes 2lbs idling at 1000rpm




how? I had a paxton on a very mild 440 w/ not much stall and in N I'd get no boost no matter the rpms? My understanding is unless the engine has a load, and in N it shouldn't you should have no boost???? even at highway speeds my boost was minimal. Does a turbo(s) work different?

Tim,

Two things come to mind, First is that the turbine and/or the housing A/R is much to small. Second - the Backpressure will most likley climb very fast and create valve float and other issues before you get in any usable RPM band.
If possible, I would try and plumb a gage port in at least one of the manifolds and monitor backpressure. In a perfect system, It should be near a 1:! ratio around your usable power band. It looks like in your case the Backpressure is going to be way to high and climb while your boost drops.
Another thing that may happen is turbo overspeed. You may bust the compressor wheel if you spin it up to fast with that backpressure.

Your blow off valve should be manifold referanced and your wastegate bottom port should manifold referanced .

You should have vacuum at idle .

There is something out of whack.

You should see the blow off valve open at idle and slam shut when you chop the throttle if you have all that boost.

The exhaust manifold length has nothing to do with it.

I looked at the gauge. I must retract the 2lbs at idle statement it is not making boost at idle

the wastegates and blowoff are plumbed correctly. I just hope this holds together for a couple good passes at Lebannon Valley for Muscle Palooza. Al, the manifolds did glow when breaking in the cam

I was wrong. I double checked a diagram. I have the blowoff reference on the wrong side of the carb. Thanks guys for the info and getting me to double check things

do you have your fuel boost referenced?

the mechanical fuel pump is boost referenced and surprisingly works

What is the size of the turbine wheel or spec."P" trim? or "Q"? Millimeters if known?
.63 are prolly gonna give a ton of back pressure.
How much seat pressure are you running on the valves? 150 or more?

i don't know the trim. The springs are the ones that come on Edelbrock RPM heads

that's what I did too. When I was told how to do it I was like...what no way that's going to work.

I would love to see that thing on a chassis dyno.

My computor couldn't see the vid but those pics are hot!

I just hooked up the throttle and return springs. I also mounted the pods for the gauges to be inside. I will mount the shifter today and torque the car up against the converter and see how it handles it. then I will do some burnouts and video it
