I fixed my turbo problem...just one last kink to figure out!!!!

ok get a boostcontroler, either make it, or buy it ASAP! then hook up the j-pipe nipple to the inlet on the Boost Controler, then the outlet of the boost controler to the wastegate... it'll make you happy!

Alright well I will order one off of joepmbc.com...they seem fairly cheap and I know that there pretty popular.

I work tomorrow (@ Lowes) so I will buy some stuff that I can use to make my own MBC until I buy it, I hate waiting for shipping.

Thanks again blackcrow for the diagram...LOL...I always forget that I have a chiltons manual...

"get an mbc plug the inlet to your mbc to the nipple on the jpipe and the outlet of the mbc to your wastegate."

What do ya'll think about the ebay brands? Are they of good enough quality?

Those'll work.

boost controlers are very simple... one of the many things the ebay brands do just fine at. go for it!

[AbsoluteGTR]

yea...well i just bought one, $12 isnt that bad if it sucks ass. Lets just hope that this cures the problem...

Just get a MBC, a JoeP one is like 30 bucks, and throw it inbetween the wastgate and the j-pipe and you should be gravy.

Alright, well hopefully it will come in tomorrow or monday but when it does, what boost level should I set it at...what would be a safe level?

I know 1g's from the factory are set at ~10 psi...so is ~15 psi a good level or can I go higher.

The only mods I have are just open element and I am running just a downpipe.

So what level should I set at?

Thanks to all!

[eclipsed at 3am]

15 should hold good.

hey, going back to that diagram, posted above. I think my wastegate solenoid is unplugged...

is this a good thing?!?

my car seems to surge really bad under full boost... (almost like fuel cut)
looking at that diagram, I actually think alot of my vacuum lines are messed up... anybody got a clearer pic of that (one I can print and use to trace my lines)

Sorry thats the clearest one I have. If you save it and actually print it to a full sheet 8.5x11 its pretty decent. I printed it up just to have for stock setups when people don't wanna get rid of shit... I think that if your BCS has no vaccum lines running to it then you better have a MBC in there somewhere else or its gonna go crazy and not know whats going on.

yeah, I have a MBC (Turbo XS)... Thanks, I might try and print that out then... I need to look it over really carefully...
