Hello everyone! As the title says, Turbo smart gives us another performance option! I placed placed my order, and should have performance numbers by the end if next week!
The 10psi wastegate was good for an increase in HP by 30hp and Torque numbers by an increase of 40LbsFt by 3500rpm! So the 12psi should increase these numbers!
Best I've done using Track Apps is a 14.3ET! So if I can get to 13's with this wastegate, I'll be happy!
This looks promising guys! I got to 19lbs of boost in 3rd gear for the very first time, ever! Thus WS t 4000rpm! I am sure it will get to 20lbs by 6500rpm no problem!
Thanks TurboSmart! J really appreciate it!
Voltwings, what do you think about this? I'm headed in the right direction! By 6500rpm in 3rd gear 20lbs seems likely, don't you think?
I'm getting that extra boost at 4000rpm! I have 2500 more rpm to go! If I can nail 20psi by 5000rpm, that would be pretty sweet, don't you think Voltwings?
OK! This time in 3rd gear it went to 19psi at 3500rpm and held it till 4500rpm when I shifted to 4th! 4thvgwar went straight to 19psi, and then I lifted!
So this 12psi wastegate is awesome! I know I'm going have hit a 13 to be believed! LOL! Trust me, if you have a stock Ecoboost, make this your first Modification! Nothing but rave reviews from me TurboSmart! You guys are awesome! My SOTP says this wastegate is kicking ***!
The (Powerband) for this 12psu wastegate is immense guys! I've only ridden it out to 4500rpm, cause I'm coming up on traffic! Getting to do a 1/4 mile run is going to be tough around here, cause of the traffic! The wastegate is definitely worth the money! If you read what Voltwings wrote and understand him, then you will also understand where the wastegate's gains come from! With a weaker spring your not able to produce 19lbs in 3rd gear at all! To think I'm going to get 1 more PSU of boost by 6500rpm is ridiculous!
TurboSmart really nailed it in this one guys! The 12psi wastegate actuator us a success!
Now, got to mentally prepare to run 13 seconds somehow! Lot of traffic around here!
One thing I did notice, is that the ECU takes awhile to recognize the new wastegate spring pressure! Last night it didn't respond like it did today! So once you install it, you have yo jump on it a few times, so the ECU is able to adjust for the increased spring rate! The ECU basically calibrates itself to the new spring!
Just so it stays relevant! The most boost I've seen with the 7psi factory wastegate, was no more than 14 to 15psi in 3rd gear! And this was above 3500rpm!
So as you can see, this new wastegate from TurboSmart is just down right awesome!
Lol come on man. Your acting like you just built a car that is going to change the face of the scene, and want to keep it under wraps until the whole world is watching.

I'm really impressed by the technology behind the Ecoboost ECU and how it controls boost with the wastegate! Ford must move to an Ecoboost GT500, and use the same ECU! Its spot on accurate!
Not sure how most resist the Ecoboost! I think the Coyote is nice, but it needs forced induction for mist to be happy!
120 mph with tune and tire lol... took a CJ to do that on my '13. Granted i'm probably the world's worst drag racer + street tires and 3.31s. Be that as it may, those 18s move.
Weight has nothing to do with rear gear ratio selection by the manufacturers. Tire size and transmission with car weight only a piece of the puzzle as to how well you use the engine power. Foxbody didn't have the rear end gear from the factory due to weight. And a GT500 doesn't use a 3.31 due to any weight difference between the S197 options.
Hey everyone! Spread the word about TurboSmart's new 12psi wastegate benefits!
1. High boost in 3rd gear(without a tune) 19psi
2. 1 Bar of boost or 14psi n 1st and 2nd gear(without a tune)
3.High boost in 4th gear 19psi
4.Full boost in 4th gear at 5500rpm
All of this without a tune! Its pure insanity from TurboSmart! You Rick TurboSmart!!
