Don't want another blown engine... that will make it the 3rd one.. Thanks for the info guys helped a lot! Pretty excited. Was making 310rwkw on 17psi bleeding down to a pathetic 10psi... Next mod 1000hp nizpro cooler Electronic boost controller (GeForce 2) E85 Injectors and pump plus tune Got valve springs from my old engine if I need to throw them in I will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't hold boost, you probably don't need a new boost controller, you probably need either better hardware to hold the boost (actuator/ported rear turbo housing/wastegate flapper mod/boost solenoid) and/or better software setup to hold the boost (better tune).

Hussydabomb Member 81 Member For: 10y 3m 10d Posted 23/05/16 06:30 AM Author Share Posted 23/05/16 06:30 AM Well the first rod out of the sump was from Horsepower Factory after aprox 5,000km after doing the tune This one was after about the same. Honestly I did put my foot down a fair bit but never redlined it. We did have a talk over the phone and the bloke at dynomite put it down to the oil possibly.. I used Penrite 15-50 fully synthetic if I recall not that I see anything wrong with that oil. He agreed to go over the tune again after I put the new engine in and all that. I do have a turbosmart 12psi actuator and a ported rear turbo housing that's why I'm resorting to the EBC Also ill add they both shot the rod at aprox 3,000RPM when it began to spool up and they were both ba engines first tune blew at 270rwkw auto... I know unbelievable Now 310rwkw 10psi 6 speed manual now I'm dyslexic and cannot turn off simple functions in tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously doubt that just 15w-50 oil would cause a rod to attempt to exit the block... If they're not willing to give you a reasonably accurate diagnosis, personally, I'd be choosing a different tuner. If the tune has boost falling over in the top end down to 10PSI when you have a 12PSI actuator, then it's either leaking wastegate/manifold/housing that's bleeding off boost, too much exhaust backpressure to limit boost as flow increases or in the tune...

Hussydabomb Member 81 Member For: 10y 3m 10d Posted 23/05/16 06:46 AM Author Share Posted 23/05/16 06:46 AM I cant exactly start a fight with the current tuner as its better to keep the friction to a minimal if I want him to take another look at it. Ill go over the manifold and make sure its been torqued down and do a compression test on the piping. Also I've got a screamer pipe on it atm with an internal waste gate if that makes a difference?
