58935, so confused about wastegate setup...!
Posted by davo345, Oct-19-03 09:55 AM
ive been searching the web for the past hour, and i guess i am doing something wrong because i couldnt find anything on how to properly setup an external wastegate.

two holes: top = vaccume; bottom = boost

where in the ^&#! do i connect each of these lines to? i know one of them goes to the 90 deg fitting on the turbo, but which line is it!? and where does the other one go to!@>?!

HELP! (i think this wastegate may be my undoing)

thanks.

Leave the top one labeled vacuum alone and run a line from the bottom one labeled boost to your turbo's compressor, Good Luck.:thumbsup

so just leave the top one the way it is? no fitting, no nothing?

wow this image helped me a lot. hook up the vaccume to the mbc/ebc to a tee to the bov and VUAHLA!

now this brings be back to my other question, do i just leave that top vaccume hole just the way it is, or should i buy a brass nipple for it? i am going to be running base psi for a while so i wont be installing my mbc for a few months.

lemme know!
