Re: Boost Controller Moving Advice

i ran mine in down the centre past the gear shifter and into the main media console from under the ashtray. plenty of space to run loads of pipes/cables along that route :)

Re: Seemly dangerous Overboost issue... anyone shed some light?

If its had a mechanical boost controller fitted the right port of the actuator should be blocked off (same when fitting the EBC) ok but im confused, this is all great info, but i havent fully installed the controller... so havent touched the stock pipework. it boosted normally before i connected it...

Re: Seemly dangerous Overboost issue... anyone shed some light?

not sure which bit you mean Steve the actuator and turbo i havent touched. so should be running as per before i installed it? the only thing that i've connected to the air system at all is the vac feed to the dsbc. which is still live... so the dsbc reads the boost pressure. it is tee'd off the vac ...

Re: Seemly dangerous Overboost issue... anyone shed some light?

Re: Seemly dangerous Overboost issue... anyone shed some light?
