EBC reads way to much boost
So I recently installed a Greddy Profec B II boost controller in my car. While trying to set it up I had it set to make factory boost Which is 7Psi. My boost gauge reads 7 pounds at WOT but the boost controller reads a warning of 37. Any help would be appreciated. Its a Redtop with Factory SMIC
Lines run as Follows. (Throttle Body) Top left FPR Tee'd for the Boost Controller Top right BOV Bottom Boost Gauge. Then line from actuator into COM port, NO line running to fitting on the cold pipe. |
Double checked the reference line to make sure there's no kink?

Also I should add making adjustments to the Boost Controller doesn't seem to do anything. I did small tests but even still it doesn't seem to work.

download a manual for your boost controller, if you already have a manual, then you have a comprehension problem.
The unit is set to read in kpa, the manual will show you how to change it to psi, but it's in x10 increments so 10psi would be 100. Back to kpa, 37kpa would be roughly 5.4psi if you have a warning set for that low you won't be able to raise the boost but you should be seeing the actuator boost setting, 7psi so you probably have a boostleak somewhere. get manual, boostleak test or verify your connections |
Also, run your boost source for the wastegate off of the hotpipe, don't tee off of your FPR or to the throttle body. The wastegate isn't meant to see vacuum.
