I washed the Hyundai Sonata parked behind the 3000GT
Replaced my rear krank vent with a hose so I'm only running the small krank vent. I installed a Hallman MBC. Boost is rock solid now no more high boost surge. I guess the LCD BC/Mac solenoid setup needs a little more refining. The car feels really good. It caught me by surprise and scared me a little when it hit 29.6 psi in 3rd gear. :eek4:
Lol. I turned it down back to 24/25 psi. Even hitting almost 30 psi my dipstick didn't blow out like before. I'll be watching it some more to make sure my crankcase pressure isn't high but I think it's fixed. Between that and the boost controller working right it almost feels like a new car. I do need to change my oil though. At first I forgot to connect a couple of the sensors back together after replacing a vacuum hose so it ran like crap and rich up/down the street. Sometimes you forget things. :(
What was your PSI surging to?
It was the LCD BC/Mac solenoid combo not being able to keep up or more specifically the LCD BC. I would say above 20 psi it would kind of pulse trying to hit the target like it couldn't make up it's mind what to do. It wasn't knock related or anything because I watched. I'm confident it will work but needs some more refining. I think I had been battling it for awhile actually probably 6 months without really knowing it up until I hit higher boost. It's very very noticeable how different the car feels. Quite a few EBCs have a harder time at those boost levels. When I was researching a MBC more than I realized across multiple platforms had to switch from electronic in order for the boost to be stable. Standalones were an exception.Quote:

Including my HKS EZII EBC, I have switched to MBC, 23 psi was my limit.
