As soon as I got the job done properly boost came under control.http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/index.ph...&hl=O2STOCK Edited 05/05/08 10:45 AM by O2STOCK Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/45155-over-boosting/page/3/#findComment-671210 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that there are some good points to each argument and the funny thing was it was just a hose off the boost controller that caused the overboosting!

Guest dico2020 Guests Posted 05/05/08 12:56 PM Share Posted 05/05/08 12:56 PM (edited) I dont know why people were argueing,I just started a thread about how happy I was that I was gonna spend $800 or whatever for a externalgate/screamer pipe.I could have used another company to do the origanal gate mods, but I had already waited 3 months for them to return a phone call about booking me in for an exhaust.... "the old ill get back to ya tomorrow". (they never called back) Edited 05/05/08 12:57 PM by dico2020 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/45155-over-boosting/page/3/#findComment-671336 Share on other sites More sharing options...

spine Donating Members 642 Member For: 19y 13d Gender: Male Location: Footscrayastan Posted 05/05/08 07:44 PM Share Posted 05/05/08 07:44 PM whilst fatz and mucus-t were playing with thier flaps on saturday, I popped around to headsex's to clean up my tune and do some data logging after fitting an x-force 4"dump, 3.5" single.we were excited to see the boost at an uncontrollable 20psi, even though my gates been ported to within an inch of its life! so im looking forward to getting an etm external wastegate and screamer pipe, and one of his remote turbo oil filters. anyone else had this problem and had to chane to an external?oh and envy-t, when you hear people talking about a fat poof, dosnt always mean their talking about you!! hahaha I dont know why people were argueing,I just started a thread about how happy I was that I was gonna spend $800 or whatever for a externalgate/screamer pipe.I havent really seen an argument, you asked if anyone has had this problem? and had to change to external? Now the technical data in relation to external gates and the process of porting an internal wastegate listed in this thread is just that, not an argument. I appreciate different opinions from workshops in the one topic. This is not an argument, just a FORUM.
