boost controller (Manuel)

[justinhill]

so I have done some searching and I found this http://www.belitski.com/cars/talonmods/turbo/vfaqhallman.html
but I have a internal waste gate would I put a nipple on the turbo compressor and run the line from the t to the waste gate silnoid then to boost controller then to the waste gate or do I do the turbo compressor to the controller to the waste gate. im so confuse!

Remove all factory boost solenoid lines from the setup and cap off the open nipple on the intake pipe. Do not use the factory wastegate solenoid in anyway.

Then you can either run a line from the turbo compressor housing to the bottom port of the MBC and then from the side port of the MBC to the wastegate actuator. Or run a line from a T in the BOV line to the bottom port of the MBC and then from the side port of the MBC to the wastegate actuator.

MBC? i heard t ing from the bov wasnt good but i dk

oh never mind i manual boost controller i got it thats how i have it hooked up now from the compres to the bottumof mbc then to the wastegate but it seems its not boosting to the point i want and i did a boost leak test two

MBC = manual (notice spelling) boost controller

Using the turbo outlet is a better pressure source in my opinion and what I have always done when possible. It helps to reduce/eliminate boost spike. It also helps to clean up the engine bay, I like to use as little hose as possible for a clean uncluttered look.

Seriously dude, proof-read what you type before posting to make sure it at least makes sense.

I always liked from the BOV line more because it was less effected by weather, but the BOV itself can cause problems. A dedicated source off the intake manifold would be nice, but we usually don't have that many ports. Boost spiking when using a source far away from the turbo is often a sign of a boost leak.
