vacuum source to the boost controller. boost controller to the waste gate.

if it doesn't work, flip the boost controller around

[KeeleDesign]

I sugest Hallman, not sure if i spelled that right.

vacumn source = what we refer to anything that sees vacumn or boost... as any vac source on ur engine WILL see boost when u turbocharge it (Excluding checkvalved lines)


anyway.. so if ur wastegate problem fixed to were ur only running 3psi at Full throttle? if so good.. since u werent able to control it before... so once step forward.. good

now..


boost controllers can be set up various ways

but the best way is

vac source off the turbo or intake manifold----boost controller---turbo


another way that works for some ppl but usually may end up causing spikes if u have to raise the boost controller 2 much is bleeding the boost


vac source----a vac T---boost controller and the other part of the T to the wastegate.. u adjust the boost controller accordingly.. when it sees pressure it will bleed the boost to the atmosphere.. thus making the wastegate see less boost(your boost will be higher) till the wastegate sees enough boost for it to open


a quick way to check that u have the boost controller correct is

loosen it all the way till u feel no tension on the boost controller


blow on 1 of the nipple fittings.. and if u start to tighten the adjust knob.. if it begins to be harder and harder to blow air.. u have it correct..
