Can someone please shed some light on the proper BOOST settings for my ROM(88590715). It seems as though I cannot get past 100Kpa(15psi). I'm guessing that is waste gate pressure.

As far as the HKS EVC 5 I was able to set it to EXTERNAL wastegate(P.O.) and test various boost curve settings. Boost curves are set at A(75%) and B(25%). Neither setting gives me higher than 100Kpa. Lowest maybe 94Kpa. I was thinking it may be some setting within the ROM?

Please Advise,

 

are your using the ebc to control boost or the ecu

 

Using the ebc to control boost.

 

then its nothing in the ecu , make sure its piped correctly and follow the insructions to set the boost level

Do you guys think I should disconnect the stock boost selonoid?

Also, Are these considered the same. I can id some inconsistencies. I would like to know which one to follow;




OR




OR






I have tried to do all of these at one time or another and have received the same baseline boost(0 setting on hks evc 5) of 93-100kpa, Which is good. the problem is when I turn up the boost n the boost remains the same. I'm thinking my hks solenoid. But then when I connect the top of the Tial wastegate to the hks leftmost port, it goes way up to 233-240kpa. So before I start a final test n buy some vacuum lines and Ts, I would like the final word on which one to follow in order to see if my hks solenoid is busted.

Todd u have a IV w/ mivec? The IV is really my favorite since Jackie Chan's "Who Am I" movie. Have any pics?

 

lol il have a look for some decent ones


doesnt matter if you leave the stock solenoid connected electrically but blank the pipes


from boost source (turbo out) to T piece then to middle pipe (inlet)on evc solenoid and other side of T bottom of the wastegate
top of wastegate to out on solenoid
small pipe on evc solenoid to inlet manifold after the throttle body

 

Ok piped as shown on the hks manual n still now now heavily over boosting to 240kpa+. Looking into the PO/SW settings.
