Totally stumped...........
Totally stumped...........
As the title says guys.....
After having silverline making me a new pulley for the charger to try and fix the boost problems still not making anything
Today I took it for a rr with fingers crossed hoping it was a dodgy gauge or something. Made a whole 137 at the fly!!!!!!
Only idea that the guy had went along the lines of this that I ve copied from a site, any input would be welcome guys
s with the Roots-type supercharger, you must install a bypass valve and relocate the throttle body ahead of the supercharger's inlet port when implementing a twin-screw supercharger. If you don't move the throttle body, the pressure between the supercharger and the throttle plate will build up on idle, or when decelerating or changing gear. When the pressure between the supercharger and the closed throttle exceeds the boost pressure produced by the supercharger, the air will be forced back through the supercharger. This will cause the supercharger to cease as air can only move in one direction through a positive-displacement supercharger. As a result, the drive belt could be destroyed and the throttle plate could buckle and get jammed in the throttle bore as the pressure will not be released. However, relocating the throttle body will result in poor throttle response but this is unavoidable.
Only thing about this is do the tte kits not run simillar to this?
Is it making all the same noises that it did when it was working previously?
First (obvious) thing that springs to mind would be belt slip. It may still spin the charger enough for it not to be noticeable, but at the same time also be slipping enough not to make any positive boost.
Hmm. Is odd. I'd go with belt slip or a burst pipe.
Have you got a bypass? Or just a dump valve? Have you checked for leaks in the circuit.
One way is to use brake cleaner spray it on the pipes/joins one by one the engine will struggle for a second if it sucks any in.
Do you know what speed the charger is spinning at now? Have you checked its enough for boost with the manufacturer?
It's just basically saying why you need a bypass. Like the tte kit.
Won't the reason you have no boost IMHO. Air should be coming out of the dump valve whilst your idling though if it's doing it's job as a bypass.
What type of dump you have? If it's a Bailey type it's no good. You need a hks ssqv IMHO.
Fair enough if it's working then. I'd check for leaks and check the rpm to know if it's making enough pressure at all.
You at jae with it? I have an rpm meter I can bring.
Be good to see you mate.
Have you checked the makers instructions for the speed you need?
