Question on a part I don't know much about...
 
How do you install manual boost controllers? I know it has something to do with vaccum lines, but I'm clueless... I'm building a turbo kit, and I have no idea how the hell do install one of these. Its just something I need to know... I know about the rest of the parts.... Thanks.

DO you have a internal/external wastegate.


Well, what you do is

1) find the line, from the turbo to the wastegate. Its a little hose. Take it off.
2) Hook up your new hose to the turbo where you took the other one off from.
3) Hook the other end up to the in on the boost controller box thing.
4) Hook the other hose up, from the out on the boost controller to the wastegate
5) You have a power wire and a ground for your display, correct? Hook up the power wire to a 12v (cig lighter is always good, unless you have 50 things running off it)
6) Find a nice ground, I used the one behind the cig lighter. Works nice


Thats all you should have to do. Than adjust it with the knows or however it works.

Im not sure if you have power wires though, that would make it electronic. so uhhh. Well, thats how you install an electronic one, so maybe you can take this and make it work out. Good luck!

get it working? not too hard, huh? When I was installing mine, I thought it would be all difficult, but it was pretty simple and fast.

peace
