Is this correct because my boost is staying the same (7psi) and I am hearing a hissing sound which the instructions say means it isnt tapping a boost line? I'm a bit confused now on what ive done wrong if anyone can help it would be appreciated?

Cheers, Tim

The hose to the waste gate actuator on the turbo is right but is the other end T'ee peiced into ur canister line?? it should go directly to a nipple on one of hte intake pipes, looks like u have a aftermarket pipe which mihgt not have it , basically it needs to be in a presurised section o fhte pipe work. the boost controler bleeds air to make the waste gate actuator htink there is less pressur and not opening hte waste gate allowing u to make more boost.

Yeah Its around the right way -> facing the wastegate actuator and yeah I've noticed that my intercooler kit doesnt have a nipple :rolleyes: its a Monkey warehouse kit too, is there any way around this that anyone knows of?

damn thos pics are small .. bigger ones?

arrow faces the wastegate actuator.

line needs to come from the plenum or the IC piping..

looks like it is trying to use the line from the plenum to the carbon canister

should be direct line -- plenum - boost controller -- actuator

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
