Ok so i had a turbotech boost controller, and my boost was spyking, so i took it off to connect back my stock controller.

HOWEVER which way do the hoses go. Anyone got a pic, Does the hose from the turbo the inlet into the cooler go to the top or bottom of the selenoid. Where does the restrictor go, which way, to the wastgate or back to the gate.

I have run the car and it holds 10psi all the way to 5000rpm and then climbs up to 12-13psi.

The boost comes on strong as i have doen the grounging mod.

I just don't remember which way things go.

Looking at the diagram in the manual, the top goes to turbo inlet side before the cooler, then after the cooler, i pick up the one for the wastgate and the tee. Does the restrictor go after the tee on the wastegate side or before the tee on the intercooler side.

CAN SOMONE post pics.

ALSO if the boost goes up after 5000rpm why?

What could be the problems.

BTW. My car has all the supporting mods, dump, FMIC ect etc, hence the higher boost setting from stock.

    • I'll just leave this with, holy shit, those cars at work are awesome, and this will look wicked!
    • Could you modify this duct so instead it pushes the extra air through the radiator too and not down and out? For temps, I know it's not the greatest idea, but as a bit of a last resort, you could use a very intermittent misting spray onto the front of the coolers/rad. You don't want to be soaking them such that water is dripping off, but a small most on/off so that the water evaporates. That point of it constantly evaporating, rather than being soaked in water, will pull a LOT of heat out of the cooler. I'm literally thinking just the little mist sprayers for a garden from Bunnings. Being in a low humidity climate it will help even more! The other trick if you want to be ghetto is some shade cloth hung in the opening, and keep it wet. Pretty much now it's acting like an evap cooler on a house, but cooling the air you need to use to cool the radiator...   On a topic to think about too though, when air enters through the bumper, is it all nicely ducted from the edges of that opening back at a nice angle, or is it like most cars, and the edge of the opening just stops, and suddenly it's wayyy wider behind that? If it does the later, get it shrouded out at nice angles. When that opening changes too rapidly, it can actually cause a high pressure zone between the front bar and radiator, and limit air flow into that area, which means less air for cooling, as it effectively stalls the air, AND adds to drag...
    • Do you have any before and after photos? That's $200 just for the hydro blasting?
    • Yea pedal box and no abs
    • It doesn't look like there's a lot of options out there these days, and what's out there is performance oriented aftermarket stuff (with the GTR markup) I wonder if there are other cars with similar springs, after all its just a matter of length, diameter and stiffness. Alternatively, I did see coil spacers. Probably not the best option, but could be serviceable too.
