Hey all! I just recently bought an alltrac in May and this is my first time owning one! I’m the fourth owner so it clearly isn’t stock anymore. It’s currently running 11-12 psi and I was told it was set with an MBC. I just wanted to turn it up a few psi, not much, but the MBC isn’t doing anything. I turned it down slightly and I think it did go down 1 psi so I don’t think it’s broke lol. It appears all hooked up correctly, at least to my noob eye, and I know the ct26 maxes around 20, way higher than what it’s at.
I’ve cranked it many rotations and there’s no difference. Every once in a blue moon it may blip to 13 but that’s for half a second. Anybody know how this can be fixed, or if there’s some kind of mechanism stopping it from boosting above 12?
I know the car also has a cracked exhaust manifold that I need to fix when I save up enough money, could that exhaust leak be affecting turbo spool? I work all week from early afternoon to late evening and as said previously I’m pretty new to the car scene and open to learn, but I don’t have any time to do a complicated checking of stuff or taking out things and reinstalling them if that’s an option suggested.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the block of text.
Side note: unrelated to MBC. Heard the tire clicking when turning and it seems like a CV joint going bad. How concerning is this and should I drop everything to get it fixed?
