hi all, just a quick one here. i have searched but to no avail.

basically i have done a few upgrades and have set everything up this is the last little bit before i can get it tuned :)

i am running on my r32 rb25;

-top mounted externally gated manifold

-garrett gt3082r

-Tial 38mm external gate

-greddy profec b spec ebc thingo

im unsure of how to setup the boost lines from the ext gate to the boost controller.

with my old internally gated turbo i only had the two lines going from the compressor side of turbo to the actuator and having the greddy boost solenoid in that line, now we have introduced external gate i am confuzzled.

i did get a fairly vague diagram with my tial gate but it makes no sence to me, i think that diagram excludes the ebc.

what im after is a basic diagram of how this should be setup.

i will have some pics up shortly

a response tonight would be good as i'd like to get these lines sorted and done in the morning :)

thankyou in advance for any info

ben.

above is the tial 38mm gate, see how it has the two banjo type fittings there... i dont kno where these go.

and also on the greddy solenoid there are three outlets which can be used, which look kinda like this;

-NO

-NO

-COM

which one of these do i now use

Firstly, how much boost are you going to be running?

And are those Tial's internal spring change to alter the pressure setting? Or screw top?

plan on running approx 16psi

the tial gate i have is the "internal sping change" type. the spring currently there i believe is a 1bar rating, which will achieve 16psi, as i was advised when purchasing from a reputable turbo specialist place here in adelaide.

Ye you want the closest spring set possible.

I remember with the turbosmart gate i had the 17psi ended up achieving around 15.5-16psi, so you might see the same

In which case put 17psi in there... if you do that you probably wont need a EBC at all, i didnt with my setup

You need to run a line from the compressor housing (boost source) to the bottom of the wastegate, then, on that line, tee in another line which runs to your "in" feed on the boost control, and on the "out" feed on your controller, another line fron the out, to the top of the gate.

ok, to save you the f**king around later, hook kit up the same way as a internal one.. you have an electronic one?

line from MANIFOLD to boost controler -------> to wastgate lower half. top half of wastegate leave open to air.

hooking up the top half of the gate to the controler is another way but is harder to get a stable boost control without spikes etc etc...

ie: do not follow the "external wategate" hose routing that comes with you boost controler..

awesome got it sorted

what im gonna do is connect it up asif i dont have a boost controller.

ie; from compressor housing nipple to lower half of gate, leaving top half free to atmosphere

this will enable me to run boost levels at the rate of the spring which is a 1bar spring rating.

by doing this it will enable me to drive to my tuner and he can set it up which ever way he wants :domokun:

i did do some more searching this morning and found numerous diagrams on the turbosmart website which were very helpfull. even though i have a tial gate and greddy ebc the diagrams illustrated are generic i'd say.

    • He obviously had his reason for flipping you off. I wonder what it was...
    • Thats why I stay far, far away from Eastwood. only go there if I wanna eat Korean food 
    • I have to agree like, yesterday, I was driving down the warringah freeway towards the bridge when this jackass driving a beaten up Honda civic cut me off so suddenly it made me almost yank the wheel to avoid him hitting my car. Honestly and he had the NERVE to flip me off (or some other gesture Idk). Im a calm guy, but really some people just dont deserve to have a license, let alone be allowed to drive on densely populated roads/highways. If youre gonna cut through lanes at least use the damn turn signal
    • HPA do an interesting video on tuning, and Adrian shows on the dyno, moving from 10:1 to 12:1 (And I think even 13:1) and the power moves SFA. However, a couple of degrees of timing has a HUGE impact. Exhaust side of things will more be the length of the exhaust and how many bends and turns you have. The straighter you can keep it, the better. By a lot. Oh, and getting the diameter right. Bigger isn't always better. Going to big can actually lose you power.
    • I have to say, most people I see on the road fit the bill of atrocious drivers. Whether they be cowboys in their dual cabs, bogans in the Commodores, or the soccer mums. Pretty much most people on the road put zero freaking thought into driving. Barely look further up the road then the end of their bonnet, and have never even thought about how catastrophically wrong shit can go, by doing what they all deem as normal driving. Especially their late braking, racing to stopped lights, and sitting half a foot off the bumper of the car in front at 110km/h. Wanna know what's even better? By the time their kids get to be old enough to learn to drive, they've already got in the back of their brain what is normal driving, how annoyed you're allowed to get at people etc, and then their parents who actually have zero freaking skill at driving (Even though they constantly say "I've been driving for 20 years and never had an accident!") teach the little twerps how to drive, or should I say, how to make a car move. Literally watched a parent teach their L Plater, on a 4 lane freeway, that you just slam the brakes on, and push your way over, even with a B Double bearing down on you, and that's how you should drive, rather then, just keep going to the next exit. Same shit happens all the time for side streets etc, watching numpties pull dumb shit turns pushing across 3 lanes of traffic, rather than just go up the road another 30 seconds, and take the next turn that'll get you to the same location... Oh, and the damn right lane bandits. Or the retards driving along with their headphones in, and can't hear the ambulance or fire truck right up their ass about to run them over...   Pretty much, people drive on the road, like ego centric f**ks, and don't actually think how dumb shit their driving is, how it could easily kill them or someone else in a split second, or at the very least, how they're driving is contributing to all the shit they're bitching about on the road, like shitty congestion!
