BH5 Twin-turbo Rev D Running Rough


Hyperion273

Recommended Posts

Hello, this is my first post!

 

I just recently imported the vehicle from Japan and I live in Canada. I just replaced the turbo to intercooler hoses with silicone ones as the OEM ones are brittle. The car ran fine and did not have any issues until I decided to test the car's limits and touched 7k rpm at full boost. What happened was the IC hose on the primary turbo looked mangled and seems like it was sucked in on itself. I reseated the hoses and performed a boost leak test but I couldn't figure out how to block off the pcv valve so I ended up putting it off. Right now the car is running rough, and primary is not building boost. I tried unplugging the maf and it stalled the car so its not the culprit. The engine vibrations are so bad even on idle as if its running on 3 cylinders but theres no check engine light to indicate a misfire. I do have bad motor mounts so it might be making the roughness more apparent. At idle the rpm remains constant but the whole car jerks every second as if its running on 3 cylinders. The car is running on stock exhaust but I somehow hear more of the boxer rumble and the exhaust is noticeably louder than before.

 

Is my primary turbo toast? Any recommendations on where to get started for troubleshooting?

If you've had the intercooler off I'd check for vacuum leaks, there are 4 vacuum hoses that go to the intercooler and they need to be put back in the correct places. Unless they have been replaced they should be numbered and easy to find their original places. I've had the maf unplugged off my rev d and it didn't stall so may be a good idea to get it checked or swap it out to be sure. Sometimes the easiest way to find the problem is to revert back to how it was before and see if the mod was what caused the issue

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
