N249 bpass and Over BOosting

[ian_cupra]

might be fairly similar, dunno to be honest, supposed to hold boost higher than normal

hmmm

but if i have an ove rboost issue surely something that boosts higher or hold boost longer will not help my problem?? this is why i thought i would get an F not a J!

 

[ian_cupra]

no not at all, mine is fine, not done it since putting this on, and boosts to 17/18 and holds it, even on k03

 

[Funkyfin2000]

sweet, well ordered lets see how i get on!

 

[ian_cupra]

let us know how it goes when ya get it all

 

[Funkyfin2000]

will do mate...

what did you do for the clips for the tubing to the n75 at the mo i have 1 jubliee on the bit going to the TIP and the other 2 have seat metal clips (i don't think these can be reused?)

did u just use 2 jubilees?

u got any pics of urs?

 

[ian_cupra]

think you get get some new clips with it, not sure, cant remember exactly.

not got any close up pics of the n75

[Funkyfin2000]

Race valve is a H type valve (as opposed to J, F or C varient).

I have one at home. Very aggressive on initial spool up. Boost is at least a couple of psi higher. Doesn't seem to hold boost as long as the F type, though, which was OE on mine (older ones came with the C type). Limp mode was a regular occurence on the H valve, so I went back to the F. The F feels much smoother IMO. Some cars will work fine with the H type, some won't. No rhyme or reason to it I'm afraid.

think im gunna stick my f on that i have at home

My Mk3 Ibiza is April 2002 and that had a 'C' on it. SEAT stopped making the 'C' and replaced it with the 'F'.

Your getting overboost and want to try a race valve? I dont get this, they normally show higher boost spikes and higher boost up top so theres more chance your gonna see gimp mode imo.

 

[Funkyfin2000]

thats what i said in the first place phil!!!

but lets give it a go.....if not il try peachys F valve..

 

[ian_cupra]

thought the reason you get over boost was because the actual boost is higher than the requested boost??
