Ok I just got a boost controller and boost gauge to put in. Both second hand so no instructions. However, I do have a pretty good idea where to put what.

However, I'm new at this so I wanted to be absolutely certain of where to put what. Can som1 pls take these pics and draw on which to put where?

As you can see - pretty much stock RB20 (in this area) with FPR attached. Want to install a Dual stage boost controller (the little T valve) and the gauge.

Do I need to remove the stock boost controller line (in pic3?) or just cut that and put the gauge into it?

Thankyou so much

The line that comes from the Wastgate actuator, my mate had a redtop eccs rb20 and it was put in between that line. worked nicley, hoped that helped dude, not sure if its differant on the silvertop....

Would love to get a pik for you, but the VL with the RB is long gone and i have no piks of my brothers 32 that would help you. I can try to explain it, the wastegate actuator is the goldy coloured thing on the side of your turbo. It has kind of like a mushroom head (the hose that you want comes from that) with a long metal rod connecting to the exhaust housing of the turbo. Theres only one hose that comes out from the actuator so it should be pretty easy just to "T" it into there. Hope that makes sense :(

The wastegate actuator is located on the turbo. Here:

Looks like this and have a small black hose connected to it. Connect the solenoid for the boostcontroller on that hose :(

    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.

    • I think he was only proposing to use the wire, not the sender. Simply because it runs from the right place to the right place. Personally, I wouldn't hack up the factory wiring like that. I'd just lay in the Defi loom.
