Boost is HERE!!! Alright I now have boost boys!!! I put a relief valve in from the Gus Mahon description and it works great. The boost jumps to about 20 and settles to around 19. I think I can get rid of that spike by tweaking the ros on the wastegate controller and relief valve together. I...

Taffy, That's exactly what I was looking for. A good explanation of how to install the relief valve. Thanks azgn, Guess I ASSumed you read the entire post. Since the first thing I gave in my post was the Grainger part# of the RELIEF valve I was using. As I later posted I was...

Anyone!!! I'm noit trying to take anybodies secrets away, I'm just a do it yourself kind of guy. Isn't there a grainger valve how to section anywhere? How many headgaskets will it take befoer I figure this out?/ John

Grainger Valve? I was just wondering about the small relief hole on the actuator side of the Relief valve. On the Dawes device there seems to be a small vent holeon the side that goes to the wastegate actuator. What is the purpose of this hole and do I need to put it on my grainger valve...

Vent hole downstream? Anyone??? What about the vent hole downstream(on the relief side)? How important is this relief hole and where should it be located? Also do you need the restrictor orifice like in the stock setup? John;)

Ok, I have a Grainger valve straight from Grainger. It is part number 5z763. Now what modifications need to be done to it before installation? John:confused:

Low boost problem!!! When I got the car running, the boost was at around 11 psi. I shortened the rod and got the boost up to 14 psi. The one turn per pound was working great and then it just quit climbing. I had plenty of rod left to shorten at that point but with no response to shortneing...

Help guys, I'm pretty sure this is a newbie type question. But I have searched for hours and haven't found a specific answer to my question. What are all the possibilities to look for for a low boost problem? I have checked the following: all new vacuum lines, feel good about exhaust not...

That's it!!! Vern, You're on the right track now. I have the same setup just autometer gauge and my 3 prong plug is dangling. Like I said it just turns on the light in the dash. Some people have posted that they put a tee in there and kept their factory switch but imo you dont' really...

Oil Pressure switch!! Vern, This plug you're talking about, is it the stock wiring, if it is, this plug goes to the original oil pressure switch. It only turns on a light in the dash if the pressure falls very low(5 psi I think) It also goes to the fuel pump relay as a redundant input the...

Will the Snow ever stop???? No Champagne this time. I bought the car from a friend of mine, that lives in Springfield, MO. He had intentions of parting it out. I'm not exactly sure where he went to get it. He told me the car originall came from out west I believe. I may do Carfax on it...

No but I need to get some! My car needs paint pretty bad. It's still a work in progress right now. John

Oh yeah I forgot!!! Forgot to mention, There's an 03' Cobra lurking a round town, when I get mine lined out I'm gonna have to try him. John
