Turbo install

I suppose all of the exhaust wouldn't bypass but most would enough to where it wouldnt build any boost. Im not supper familiar with boost controllers (or anything really haha) but it would make sense that if u have a boost line going to the top of the wastegate, and one going to the bottom if the wastegate (the one that opens the wastegate) it would be pretty easy to took it up where it never opened since top boost and bottom would be the same pressure if not regulated

 

It should just intercept the boost signal to your WG. Make sure you have the line on the BC connected the correct way and not reversed.
I've never ran one from the brake booster so that may be an issue. I always ran them off of the Nipple that's on the turbo compressor housing.

 

I think tomorrow I'll change it to the nipple on the turbo and see what happens

 

Still no change does the other outlet for the wastegate need to go somewhere

 

How much psi does it run, without the boost controller?

 

I'm only at 3 psi

 

So I took this T fitting/check valve apart in the spring that's in there was stuck open with the sealant that was used to put it together

 

I haven't adjusted the BOV yet I wonder if that might have something to do with

 

Is this normal or diese that coloring mean it's stuck open

 

Wow! Good find.

 

That is normal due to the heat saturation.

 

Well it looks like I'm learning the lesson of the Ebay wastegate. It was stuck open and the diaphragm looks like it got too hot. I'm thinking to buy a good one instead of another eBay one

 

Precisely the reason why I was asking earlier. Certain parts you can cheap out on. Others you cannot.

 

I get it now

 

Ended up ordering a Tial wastegate from koracing I'll have to drive tacoma while waiting for it to ship

 

Well done.

 

I've been having lots of trouble with the oil return line leaking. I reinstalled the fittings three times and still leaking so I ordered one built to order for $48 which makes the build cost about $1800

 

Before
After

 

What is that ~1.5" pipe that t's into the intake between the maf and turbo?

 

^^^ What he said, and where is the other end attached?
