Yuo don't want this to happen And it will if you turn that screw to far.

 

buy your self some guages!! this is a must for any truck, stock or upgraded. it is always nice to know how your truck is doing and you need to watch EGT's after turning fuel screw. boost guage is necessary after tuning the star wheel. you dont want to turn it to much and have too much boost which will cause your head studs to fail and an expensive repair.

Doesn't the stock turbo set up use a waste gate? How would this over-boost condition occur?

On another topic, what is the maximum boost these trucks can generate (or should be generating) with the 3200 governor spring and stock turbo set up?

 

the stock turbo isnt waste gated on these trucks. the hx35 can put out 35psi or more if i am correct someone will probably correct me but that is what i run at on my truck

 

im not sure on the max psi but with my stock h1c i max out the 30 psi boost gauge before the pedal even hits the floor. need a bigger gauge

 

i took out my spring and removed the nylon washer it madea big change but now i have a ton of smoke my mpg's fell off a little i lost like 20 miles on a full tank

 

i removed the washer but decided against removing the spring, i tow some and didn't want to burn half my tank every time i take off.

 

Boost is good.

 

Yea I,am also about 1/2 turn from run away, should I back it off more. Im going to be on a dyno at the end of the month in Snowflake az. I dont want runaway on the dyno.

 

I got a big issue. started out turning the fuel pin. i turned it correctly, no boost leaks, all was well i thought. when i went to test drive it it had no ***. would barely get rpm's to climb... i was told to adjust the full power screw... it got my power and throttle response back but now my idle is too low and wont rev out all the way. any ideas?
