I just installed the T3/t4 Hybrid Greddy turbo kit for the past three days on my Accord 01, 4cyl and everything looked straight to me. I tried to test drive it to see any leaking with slow speed first, but when I step a little heavier on the gas peddle to about 50-55 mph there is a lost speed in my car and there's a weard noise. It sounded like there's not enough air..Does anybody knows what's going on?? Or does it have to do with the Vacuum Sources? About the Vacuum sources, i connect the Vacuum source from the BOV together with the Wastegate Vacuum source and used a T fitting and connect them to the engine Vacuum Source (IS that a good idea?) or sperate them to diff vacuum sources. There's a nipple on the Turbo and I was going to connect the Vacuum Source from the Wastegate to it but decided NOT. Well, i 'll try to mess with it again but IF anyone knows what's going on with it, please give some advise cause it doesn't sound and perform right when i increase the power. I have pictures but working on how to put them up here.

 

wrong forum.

EDIT: what do you mean by lost speed?

 

like when i wants it to go fast like a normal car would do when you step on the gas peddle heavier and heavier. Mine doesn't do that anymore but it will make a real loud sound in the engine like it can't handle it or something. I talked to some guy today about it and he told me that i need to install the boost gauge and read it to see if there's a too much boost in the turbo and he thinks i might have a vacuum leak or something. My brother in law told me that he thinks I need to buy an Apexi to upgrade the problem computer to tell the Fuel INjectors to get more fuel in. Still don't know what's going on.

 

thats a great place to start. my guess is your not building boost.

 

Well also, i don't know if this is a problem or not but i know some people when they install the Vacuum hose from the Wastegate and they connect it to the nipple on the Turbo. What i did to my wastegate vaccum soure is that I connected that Vaccuum source from the Wastegate together with the Vacuum source on the BOV (with a "T"fitting) and then i connected to the Engine Vacuume sore, i don't know if what i did is right or wrong.

 

connect the wastegate to the nipple and see if that helps.

 

yea, i'll do that to see. I also think something's wrong with the BOV too cause it doesn't make that sound "pssshhhhhhh" like it supposed to. Don't know if anybody knows how to adjust the BOV or adjust a wastegate.

 

well maybe it's not making the noise because the turbo isnt spooling. no boost=no backpressure.

 

i believe it is making boost cause the turbo does spin when my engine is on and when i drive i can ACTUALLY hear the air coming into the intake

 

Sounds like a massive boost leak to me. Find out where it is leaking because mine will do the same thing yours will when I blow an intercooler pipe off.
