Quick Avcr Question

[AngryRB]

Does this look like its setup right?

the left hose is connected just after the compressor,

the Tee feeds 2lines to the tial 44mm which has both hoses on the bottom row of ports, should there be one on the top and one on bottom instead?

the hole with nothing in it is labelled "NO", and when doing a pressure test for vacumn leaks it was leaking massively, is that normal ?

[White GTS-T]

Normally In = NI

Normally Out = NO

The solenoid vents the pressure coming from the turbo until it reaches the preset boost level and then it allows that pressure to flow to the wastegate.

[GTSBoy]

NO means "Normall Open".

Yeah, sorry, I was just going from memory, it's been a while since I installed mine. This will help.

ok thanks for that link, ive studied that and its clear that its hooked up wrong, but im still trying to understand why when I hooked up compressed air to the system that the "NO" was leaking out air, this was with 0.3Bar with combined 14psi springs in the gate..

could the solenoid be stuck open or is definitely due to being plumbed up wrong?

I could be wrong, but have you tried testing it with reds "on" this would power up the AVCR and solenoid. My understanding is that the solenoid pulses lots of times to control boost. If you put some air into it while off, it may have stopped in an open position. I could be entirely wrong though! haha

thanks for the input guys, all good now, tuner setup it up for me today same as above link, the solenoid is actually meant to vent air off if running spring pressure and when adding more boost it uses that air to push on the spring to adjust boost higher than spring pressure. if that makes sense.

Mate could you possibly update or pm me with how you have the avcr set up with the gate or a sketch so I can make sure mine is done properly when going back on Dyno in a few weeks?

Had to cut last Dyno short as I didn't have it hooked up right damn it.lol

I have a gtt as well

[AngryRB]

no probs, see in the pic on my first post

the hose on the left goes to the top row of ports on the tial

the 2 hoses on the right of the solenoid - one is plumbed just after the turbo compressor, cold side

the other plumbs into the bottom row of ports

all other ports are plugged, the solenoid works by bleeding off air until you want more boost than the spring pressure , in that situation it forces are to the top port to help the spring keep the gate closed.

which is what the diagram in the manual in the above link shows ...

hope that helps

Nice man thanks heaps back to the Dyno I go
