Blower Being a...Whippersnapper

[whippersnapper02]

Here's how I had it mounted before:



The manual wants the EVAP canister hose going to the connector side of the valve and the manifold side going to the back. I also had it plumbed to front port instead of the back port. Maybe there is a restrictor in the rear?

The above picture is the wrong orientation.

Hmm. I was thinking bypass valve this whole time.

The valve itself doesn't have a flow direction on it so I put it in as I saw fit. I didn't think it would fit the other way but it does. Also notice that I was using the wrong port on the housing. Definitely an error in my part.

Nah I verified that long ago. I'm building a solid 7.8 to 8 PSI with the 2.85" pulley.

I'm only seeing 7 psi on the same pulley....what's your exhaust setup?

TRD catback, OEM Y pipe and OEM manifolds. I am at 381' above sea level though.

That explains it.....much more restriction...and I'm at about 600'

3rd fillup and still no weird start. I saw a puff of smoke at the near top of 2nd and another once I let off. These are puffs, not constant streams.

 

[Torspd]

So still running good then, yes?

Seems fine now. Next will be the AFR gauge to see how fat I'm running.

 

[Torspd]

Sounds good. You have the gauge already?

 

[whippersnapper02]

Negative. It's going to be a while before I do. I have to redo everything else.
