Message: [QUOTE="sniper_101, post: 867953, member: 697"] The seal for the pressure relief valve is randomly leaking like mad (on the VGT controller/"D-con" unit). No one offers a rebuild, and the little I can gather on those who attempted to rebuild it haven't had the greatest luck with it lasting. The parameters of the VGT control on this thing is ridiculous; sometimes 20lbs of boost, then 38lbs the next stab of the throttle. For no rhyme or reason. And we pull 138,000 with it... So I'm just weighing options of: - either removing the module, if the engine will operate as normal without it, and run the VGT in a "fixed" position. However I doubt the engine will run normally without it connected. - looking into a tuner/programmer that can run without it (D-con) - when the stock HE55 gives out, which is imminent, I'd like to replace it with a standard fixed turbo. So the VGT controller/module will be useless anyway... Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions to add? I haven't had much time lately to do much research into these ideas yet so bare with me.
