I have 1.4bar spring(s). I also add boost pressure to the top port. How much I add to the top I've never measured I just monitor the bp and adjust accordingly.

I've always hadgood luck with 1.2-1.4 bar springs

It did, but the top port on the wg is touching the padding on the cab.

Well????

78f100 · May 3, 2012

Thank GOD it runs boys! Just fired her up seem to be running good.

78f100 · May 4, 2012

I eased it down the road about 4 miles and it feels strong, but I didnt get in it at all gonna let the hg's settle a few days.

It has a drone sound in the cab at idle but not outside, I think my dp is hitting the frame so maybe thats it.
The airdog has a small leak, looks like its leaking at the regulator idk yet, other than that its all good

Way to go man. Your a 6.4 wrench now.

Spatel23 · May 4, 2012

that drone is most likely your downpipe as mentioned. They are a pain.

Congrats on getting it running bud. Happy for ya.

CamTom12 · May 4, 2012

Congrats!!

Red_93_L · May 4, 2012

Good to hear man. Hope it runs good for you!

Thanks guys, i fixed my airdog leak finally. It looked like the reg was leaking but I finally figured out they forgot to put the 2 small o rings in the pump cover.

I have a little of that noise from the fuel lines like some have had. Its weird the passenger fuel line feels like its vibrating really bad, and humming. Whats the fix? I torqued them by the book and put the new holddown on.

Oh I forgot to ask, it should be ok the drive without th wg controler hooked up right? I have to get some fittings for the cac pipe. The hose is just looped from the front port on the wg to the air port on the back, I need to cut and plumb it in as soon as I get the fittings.

It will be fine. Your wastegate will just open early.
