Map 2.4 Cbrd bbk-b bb Meth Water Run
My Map 2.4 standard rod, Cbrd bbk-b with meth water injection made 523 hp and 467 lb feet. Boost spiked to 31 at 4500 rpm but dropped quickly to 27 for most of the run. My mechanic said it would not hold higher boost. I am not sure if there is a problem limiting higher boost.
Anyone with the bbk-b with similar problems? I haven't seen too many recent graphs, just the beta version ones that led me to get this turbo.

if you're using a mbc you can switch it to a 3 port and make it hold more boost at higher RPM.
the first thing to look at though would be the preload on the wastegate actuator or the actuator in general. if you used a stock wastegate, you could switch to something like a 26psi turbosmart actuator and it would hold boost much better.

Map 2.4, Cbrd bbk-b bb Meth water run
Boost pressure is solenoid controlled by the AEM.
I'm running the Forge wastegate I believe it has a 24 lb spring. My mechanic said he set the preload at a high level.
Thanks for the help.

Map 2.4 cbrd bbk b
I have the ported turbo. Compression ratio is 9.7.
It's a fun daily driver for now, I am tempted by all the graphs of
the FP black bb though.

Not a bad idea to run a backpressure sensor. With a 2.4 and 57lb a min turbo its being choked out on the top. Its hard on the exh valves and may lead to a burned/bent one.
Have you thought of going with a GTX3576 or 6262/6466? You have enough displacement where spool will still be ok and it won't taper.

The Pte and Garrett turbos will necessitate a new exhaust manifold, plumbing etc. so sticking with stock frame choices are better for me. Like many with more money than brains I have a hard time controlling the urge to buy something new just for the sake of having something new. The wife hasn't enrolled me in a 12 step program yet but no need to push the limit.

I wouldnt have an urge to make any changes. thats a really nice powerband there. it falls past 7500 but so what. it makes great power from 4000-7500. thats a meaty powerband. plus these cars just plain become money pits past 600whp. get greedy for power and be sorry you did or enjoy what you have if you ask me.
