I have a problem “doubt” with some changes I made on my car, it is a 996TT with Gemballa tunning (550 HP) , K24 turbos. I was getting with OEM waste gates 0,9 boost smoothly on all gears, now I did some changes : 1. Installed new Plenum from Automotion (performance parts) with 75mm TB 2. New Air System from EVO 3. New waste gate kit from EVO Now as a result I have a setup of 1,0 boost but the strange thing is I go to 0,4 boost directly when I press on gas until aprox 3500 rpm, at that point I hear a roaring sound and it launches the car to 1,0 boost . My question is if this is right or I can damage the car that way, I got information from a fellow member that with the K24 turbos he was getting 1,2 boost at 3000 rpm This is his result: If i can tell you my experience, when you will have 1,3 bar at 3000-3500 RPM, 1,1-1,2 from 3500 to 5000 rpm, and again 1,2 at 6000 rpm with some peaks of 1,3 in the last rpm, with original internal engine parts, your car is near to be perfect. Should I rise boost or what suggest are out there?

Used 2002 996 TT or USED 2005 997 Carrera S?
contigo replied to tagger's topic in 996 TT, 996 TT S, 996 GT2
For me hands down the 996TT, the amount of toys and mods you can find is incredible if you want to go that way and the power you can get for little money is well worth it... -
Installed the new plenum plus the 75 mm Throttle, new gates (evo), before I used to get the 0,9 boost smoothly (example direct from 0 to 0,9 . now I go to 0,4 and it stays there for some time and then at 3000 rpm or a little more it goes directly to 1,0, very aggressively) , now I have 1,0 boost but I feel a very strange push and sound when at 3-4000 rpm the big boost pushes the car direct from 0,4 to 1,0 , I don’t know if this can damage the car because I don’t feel a smooth push up but an aggressive push when it kicks in, in that range , is this what you feel in your car?

I think I had something wrong (leak) I just got the EVO parts installed last night and will test them today , at the same time we took all the hoses out and re check and tighten them, yes I have Gemballa DME reprogrammed . I am going to use the gates with the 10 mm the instructions say and see what happens I also installed a new plenun and 75mm TB, I will tell you the results

My friend I decided to play with the waste gates (old) also before I install the new ones, Questions: 1 Test: 14 mm from the end and around 0,83 bar setting. The car runs good and the boost increases to 1,0-1,1 all the range. What do you see when you do this test on the gauge of the car? 0,8 or 1,0? I just did it and saw 0,8 On the 10,0 mm from the end of the rod giving 0,70 bar setting. I saw 0,7 are these numbers right? Going on the 17 mm next But still I wonder are you seeing the number on the setting on your gauge or the other higher number? If so I have something wrong….. 2 Test: 17 mm from the end and around 0,93 bar setting. The car runs better and the boost increases again to 1,1-1,2 all the range.

You have been of great help, I have on my car the K24 turbos but as you mention with the 0.9 boost setting I believe because it is the most I see pressing hard with peaks of 1,1 maybe sometimes when I take my foot off the gas. I am getting the EVO wastegates tomorrow and I plan to install them with the 1,2 setting as you mention, I also bought the EVO FPR Fuel Pressure regulator to be on the safe side with gas as the boost rises (don’t know if you did that also). Did you see a significant improvement with the new waste gates? If it isn’t too much to ask , please tell me the results from the old gates to the new. I also bought the EVO diverter valves and the new AIR system from them which I will install also at the same time.

To increase this boost as you did here you only played with the wastegates? nothing else right? When you mention example: 1 Test: 14 mm from the end and around 0,83 bar setting. The car runs good and the boost increases to 1,0-1,1 all the range. What does that 0,83 bar setting mean? the result of the 14 mm of the waste gate? I am also waiting on my EVO waste gate kit , tell me how did it work for you? what boost did you take the car to? and on what setting (measurement) did you leave it?

01 Turbo - Can only achieve .4 BAR boost?
contigo replied to aracerx's topic in 996 TT, 996 TT S, 996 GT2
Had the same problem and it was the hose (broken) that goes right before the Throttle -
Finally found how to launch, simple put the car on drive with left foot press hard on the brakes at the same time floor the gas with right foot and watch the boost come up, now it is up to you when you want to take off simply by letting go of the brake pedal.

contigo replied to tagger's topic in 996 TT, 996 TT S, 996 GT2
Hands down 996TT, the after market Mods and upgrades are great... -
They also thought it was that and I took my other car and switched the sensor from one car to the other to see if it would go away and the same, but the sensor used to test was from a 996 carrera 2002 and this car is a 996TT 2001

Dear Sir Thank you for your reply, since you have this kit on can I ask you the following?: 1. What 0-60 numbers do you think you are doing? 2. Do you think you beat a new 997T with this GT700 kit?
