Understanding pressure boost

Hello the guys,
Well you all know I have the new AAI intercoolers kit and big turbo
too. Well I have 1,6 bar turbo pression instead of ,8 bar from origine
Toyota! So I have big black smoke then the 80 is suddenly flying up
the road.
OK but I have notice a abberation. If I am go 130km heur cruising,
then I am over pression for the orange light. But I have no tr'ailer
or big load! Oh then before the big turbo stuff I go 130km and no
orange light ever come on. So now with the more boost I have the more
pression in the admission tract just to go that same speed I did do
before with no overpression.
Any body have any ideas? I am not worried, this is not a bad thing to me.

Surely it is that your engine speed at 130km/h is the same as before,
and the amount of exhaust gas will be about the same (same car, same
engine, same speed, slight difference in fuel/air mixture) ...
... so your nice new turbo is providing more boost, but the electronics
think this is "bad" because they think you still have the old turbo.
I wouldn't worry since it proves that your new turbo is working, in fact
I would worry more if it went out.
If you don't like it why not ask Maarten how to disconnect it?

all I know guys is that 1.6 pressure is too high!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!and
is not good for the engine...
that's what I heard from the turbo guy though.Mine was 1.3 and he didn't
like it and put it down to 1.0-1.1

Benoit,
I think perhaps you are looking at the difference between a turbo petrol and
a turbo diesel. With a diesel you can increase boost without increasing
fuel (ie more exhaust gas but as more air is being forced into the engine)
and it is OK, actually I was told on this list it kept the exhaust
temperatures down. More pressure but the same fuel so a leaner mixture.
On a petrol more boost means you have to add more fuel, if the mixture goes
lean it's a bad bad thing but more fuel means you go faster.

Benoit,
I take it that the orange light is the turbo light that will come on
when the turbo boost goes over 1 bar.
It's quite simple, your turbo is providing more boost so this will turn
the orange light on. This isn't a big problem, the 1HD-T and 1HD-FT
engines are able to handle some massive boosts.
What is worrying is your talk of smoke - if you are getting black smoke
it is an indication of over fuelling.
With diesels you can gently up the boost and fuelling to get more power,
but you get to this over fuelling point where the temperatures in the
cylinder head rise too high leading to damage to valves and injectors
and eventually catastrophic damage to the head.
As a rule of thumb you can tweak the pump so that you get a little puff
of black smoke when you accelerate hard with very little smoke when
general running, however a more scientific approach is to fit an Exhaust
Gas Temperature sensor - you generally install a sensor in the exhaust
manifold between the engine and the turbo and then monitor the
temperatures of the exhaust gases.

Julian
is that you wrote what we called engine overhaul?

Thank you Christopher
Well you may be on to some good idea there. But when I tow my Range
someplace I only go on the fun pedal untill the orange light wobbles
on a bit. So I know I am not soliciting too much power and heat for
the motor on the long hill.

Hello Julien,
Well you know I am agreement with you. But I did ask Maarten and he
say they have troubles with exhaust gas pyrometres. So they do not
offer that.
May be you know some other organism that does offer them pyrometres? I
have hear from many years that they are a good ideas.
No my black smoke is some llittle ittle clouds on first throttle, then
is not so much unless I push hard on the happy petal.
