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 ?post-70965-0-11252900-1372838132_thumb.jpg

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. :whistling:

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

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

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
