Re: Turbo ecu

Wait wait wait... you had the wastegate with no tube on it? Dude...

When you hit full boost that opens up and bypasses the exhaust around the turbo. No wonder you had a fire! Oil shooting out + fire from exhaust could have been a much worse then just a small fire!

I would have the BOV on it's own vacuum line. Did you adjust the Hard/soft on the BOV? You should be able to feel the air being blown out of it at idle when revving.

And what is the line running from the compressor toward the firewall?
