I have an s13 with a sr20det redtop. I got an intake, full 3in exhaust, isis pullies, isis turbo manifold, gt28r(s15) turbo, and a walbro pump and a cxracing intercooler/bov kit.
I just threw the turbo and the manifold on the other day, and today i ran it to about 5.5k-6k rmp. and at about 5.5k rmp it sort of sputters and feels like it loses pull.
i got a line running from the throttle body to the internal wastegate, so it should be running what ever boost that the wastegate is set at. Which i thought the s15 turbo was set for 15lbs, but my "sunpro" gauge says its still running at 7, just like my t25.
i might needed to grab an autometer to make sure that im reading right.
Basicly, im not sure if I need bigger injectors for stock boost with my set up so far, or if i got some sort of boost leak or if im running rich/lean. I have been smelling fuel latly in my car, even before my turbo upgrade, and im not leaking any fuel.
oh, and my greddy type-s knockoff has compressor surge, but the last time i boost leak tested it i remmeber that my bov what leaking air from the vaulve its self. so im not sure if i should losen or tighten the nut on top.
So my question is does the sputtering at high rpm with my foot in it a fuel cut caused from the increase in zir flow from my turbo, or some kind of boost leak?
and how do i fix the compressor surge from my knockoff BOV?
