Fuel problems red hot

OK well my 1999 GST has been running hot. I noticed one day that after I drive across town in light traffic took about 30 min that my manifold is glowing red. I just had to get a new ac fan bc my old one melted from the heat. So far I have replaced my MAS, Put in a walbro 190L pump, lucas injector cleaner in gas, and the dealer replaced the fuel regulater silonoid. My last turbo got cooked from the inside and I don't want my new one to have the same fate. Please someone help me fix this problem.

are you running any type of fuel management.

No fuel mangment just the oem computer. I also have greddy metal IC piping and I have checked all the couplers. Do you think new wires and plugs could help?

There is nothing wrong with a glowing manifold. As long as your water temp is normal you are fine!

even glowing when your not even running it hard. The temp gauge stays in the middle and doesn't over heat. Do you think Something like wetter water or engine Ice would help keep the turbo from glowing.

Trust me its nothing... your fine :)

im sure its probably something considering he screwed up a turbo and melted his fan already

its gotta be something. For some reason his EGT's are probably off the chart. So to me it sounds like you not getting enough fuel.

Damn! lol its fine! Turbos DO sometimes just go. **** happens. The stock turbo sucks.. and if he is higher than stock boost then no wonder it went! That has noting to do with the heat.

my old turbo was only running 12 psi when the inside of the turbo by the blades melted a hole. What is the best fuel system cleaner?

Dude... im telling you ... YOUR FINE!

Any cleaner wont do you any good. If you want to monitor the problem then get a wideband or an EGT guage... or both :)

chevron concentrated fuel system cleaner. best used when you are about empty. Might also want to pull your injectors and just clean them. Get a fuel pressure gauge to check your fuel pressure. That way you can see if you are starving your engine for fuel. Pull your plugs and if they are white then you are running really rich, I think. Might be the other way around. Check oil pressure.
As far as I know as long as your turbo is not smoking then you should not have too much of a problem.
Check your intercooler as well to make sure it is running properly.
Basically process of elimination. If all your vacuum line are running good and your intercooler piping has not leaks then you now your running a safe boost. Maybe just turn down your boost a little. "More boost does not necessarily mean more power." One of my friend favorite quotes.
The wideband is a good idea.
I'm not too sure but if something is running hot enough to melt thing then that is not good.
Basically process of elimination. Check and recheck and check again. Have someone with you that has a lot of knowledge about turbos. That sometimes helps they might think of something that you haven't.

I dissagree with you. I think all he needs would be a wideband and a EGT gauge. I still think the car is absolutly fine.

Its more for peace of mind then anything else. Better to be safe then sorry. Besides we really don't know unless we actually see the car. It could be a multiple of problems that are occuring that we don't know about or its just nothing. I myself would rather check then just let it be.

THE CAR IS FINE

ok if u say so

After I put the walbro 190l in I noticed a increase in mpg by like 1.5 mpg. as to date I have replaced the fuel pum, fuel filter mas, fuel pressure silnoid and checked my ic piping. The only thing left is the injectors right? If do get new ones will 550cc work without having to get a safc or dsmlink? and what are good brands to look for.

Dude... im not goin to say it again.. its fine... but if you want to be safe... get an EGT gauge and get a wideband just to be safe...

You don't have to say it again just don't post. Beside if I do get a egt and wide band and it tells me I'm really hot then what do i do I'm just trying to weight my options

Find out why... that would mean checking you have constant fuel pressure ect... injectors are ok.. .ect... but i still highly doubt that anything is wrong. My exhaust manifold glows all the time.

Anyone know if 550cc will work w/o a fuel mangement system. Also what is a good brand?

i think with the 550's your gonna have to tune them some how, wether it be the safc or something equivalent

Ok So I have replace the spark plugs and wires, 190l Walbor fuel pump, New fuel pressure silonoid, New o2 sensors, BG44 Fuel system cleaner. New cleaned MAS sensor. I'm not having any boost leaks bc I can hold 16 PSI to 7k. I Am still having a glowing manifold. The last time I had the get a new turbo was bc the internals melted. If I take my car to the dealer or another shop what ind of test should I have them run? and with all the mentioned parts I have replaced What is left to go wrong?

My other question is has anyone replaced their AC Fan with a slim fan? If so how did it affect the AC system?

damnit what dont you understand? I have repeated myself multiple times. ITS ****ING NORMAL.
