I have standard AXT turbo installed on my BJ40/3B. Was wondering if my setup is not generating as much boost as it should (or could) in low rpm. Under load I get about 6 psi of Boost at 2000rpm and max out at 9 psi at 2800 rpm.
Is this typical for AXT? I am finding that some hills catch me needing an inbetween gear still...
AXT did the install and set it up for 7psi 3+ years ago - as at the time I didn't have an EGT gauge. Since acquiring the gauge I slightly (shortend I think) (based on advise from AXT) the waste gate rod to get it to max out at 9-10psi...
Was that the right thing to do? Or is bleeding air via a tee junction better?
Is it possible that adjusting the pump for more fuel might get me more boost lower down?
(Noting too that my engine was fully rebuilt with new pistons, sleeves, head, valves, valve springs, pump + injectors serviced] less than 30,000km ago - and still has 400+psi compression)
What ye think ye-all 3B gods...?
