Can someone please help me, I have bought a new incabin Boost Controller made by Turbosmart, I was going to install it to find, the stock Solenoid controller had already been removed by the previouse owner, the car has an after market Intercooler and a HKS Sequential Wastegate installed on the pipe between the Turbo and the Intercooler, the hosing coming out of the Actuater on the Turbo runs out of it then back up into the Plenum then the hosing from the HKS Wastegate runs back up into the Plenum as well, where do I install the Tee Piece, I'm so lost and the only intructions I have are the one for if I still had the factory Solenoid still installed, so now I'm pretty lost...

???

have a better search its all in here somewhere.

btw you shouldn't be doing anything to the BOV it has nothing at all to do with your boost control.

at the end of the day if you have no idea what you are doing and are not mechanically minded just pay someone to install it for you, if you connect the lines up the wrong way you can have unlimited boost shortly followed by the compressor and or exhaust wheel flying apart leaving you with a dead turbo for the sake of saving $100.

Ok I've figured it out...

The Line from the Actuator and the line from the Hks Wastegate both run to the Rear of the Intake plenum. (on seperate lines of course.)

So I've left the Wastegate line alone, cut the Acutator line and plugged the end running for the Plenum, then I've installed a smell Tubbing nipple before the throtle body (i.e in between the after market intercooler and the inlet manifold, not between the pipe from the Turbo to ic, this makes alot of difference.) then run the T-Piece in between that outlet and the actuator, then that vents off to the in cabin BC.

you cant T it in, you need to have a vac line from the plenum or cooler piping going in 1 side of the boost controller and the line from the other side needs to go to the actuator. it'll have an arrow on there to show which way to plumb it in

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.

      It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.

      Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
