Manual boost controller?? Thoughts?

[Dimebag]

Ok so having a long lines runing all the way up to my dash wouldn't affect anything? So to get this right, I can tee into the line say from my boost gauge. Then from there to the controller(turbosmart) then back down the tunnel to the waste gate? What would I do with the fitting off the bottom of the turbo compressor?

One line from the "bottom" of the turbo to the boost controller, and the other line from the boost controller to the wastegate.

Ok yeah the lines are 3/16 of an inch ID. So I can run two lines all the way from the turbo up to the front and then back again?

Say if I was mounting the turbo smart valve up by the handle bars.

Do I got that right guys?

 

[Dimebag]

Yep. Thats right.

Ok thanks! Now that I have it installed I pressure tested and found that I have leaks on the turbo smart tee unless I turn it is fully closed then it doesn't leak. It comes from what looks like two little holes. Is this normal?

where did you mount the boost control lines lines…..from the turbo to the controller and back to the actuator or?

thanks

Yes from the turbo to the controller then to the actuator.

Yes from the turbo to the controller then to the actuator.

How does the boost gauge read the new boost signal after it travels from the controller to the waste gate?
