OVERBOOSTING FIXED - Wastegate Porting & Bigger Flapper Valve | BA-BF-FG Falcon Or Territory

Having issues with too much boost, boost creep or huge spikes?
If you’ve put a bigger exhaust, cat or dump pipe on your turbo Falcon and are now having overboosting issues, or just got unlucky like me to have them on a close to stock car, then my DIY Wastegate Porting and bigger Flapper mod may help save your engine.
And it may even make your car perform better by keeping it out of ECU controlled protection, because too much boost IS actually a thing - hard to believe I know!
Hope you enjoy, if you did and would like to support our little battler channel grow please consider liking, sharing with a mate and subscribe to keep up to date as videos come out!

As an FYI - don’t use long carbide burs with that die grinder. It’s too fast for them & will bend them pretty much instantly (ask me how I know 😂) Use a variable speed electric die grinder or an air one & throttle it.

Inlet manifold is still the best source. I’d get a freely available 1 way valve that will prevent the WG actuator from seeing any vacuum.

@KiwiPokerPlayer 2 жыл бұрын

Wow, caught this one early. Another great video Brownie. Can't wait to see it on the 1/4 mile again. I just had to do the inlet manifold gaskets on my BA and thought that might be a good idea for a video at some point if you haven't done yours yet. It's not technically difficult, but it's a bit of a pain to get to all the bolts. The gasket between the head and the manifold is the cause of the very common BA rough idle problem so they pretty much all have to be replaced at some point.

@BrowneysGarage 2 жыл бұрын

Legend, thanks mate. It's coming, should be there this Sunday so expect the video in a week or 2 all going well. Not a job I want to do any time soon! Haven't done mine yet and unfortunately may not make such a great video if/when I do, as you said not super technical but just looks time consuming and painful - likely just minutes of me cursing the car out!

@KiwiPokerPlayer 2 жыл бұрын

@@BrowneysGarage Awesome, can't wait. If you do end up having to do those gaskets, get a few days worth of penetrating oil into the bolts that hold the two halves of the manifold together. Mine were pretty seized up.

Great video Brownie well explained I found the ball shaped carbide bit extremely helpful for rounding the corners of the waste gate entry just like a short turn radius when porting a head

Handy to know, thanks mate. Should have played around with the different shapes a bit more but not sure some of those would have reached far enough for me to work and see what was going on still! Next time

An exhaust is a must. 4" dump into 3" after mid muffler. High flow cat Then replace the under battery pipe if you used a stock one.

@andrewntoth1 2 жыл бұрын

Another cause for the boost bleeding off could be the stock exhaust (if the turbo can't push the air out fast enough , it can't make boost in short) 👍

Good point. Think there's other cars out there holding a good hit more boost on stock parts but definitely something to keep in mind, thanks mate 👍

80mm (bit.ly/3nep7QG) then I cut 10 or 20mm off, can't remember exactly, to get the right length I needed without running out of thread. Couldn't find something to suit at the time but I was in a rush so it may be out there.

@rustybogans2508 4 ай бұрын

I’m really puzzled as to why you’re going to all that trouble with stock parts. Bigger exhaust is a must on a barra not to mention intercooler and injectors. Professional tune will stop the overboost that’s all i did to my FG 10 years ago and it’s still hammering along at 310rwkw with 210 000km on it
