[Mk2] [Turbo] Plumbing in Gizzmo ebc

Post by add heywood »

My car is currently running a grainger valve (mbc). I have just purchased a gizzmo ebc. Am I right in thinking I can just swap the pipes off the mbc and replace with the ebc solenoid? Then thats the plumbing done...? I have a boost gauge that I will take out and use the boost pipe to connect to the ebc unit...

So then the car will have....

Gizzmo boost controller
Greddy Intercooler with spal
Mongoose full decat exhaust and downpipe
Cone filter
Colder plugs

Should this see about 280-300 bhp at about 16psi...?

With regards to the plumbing, yes that's all you need to do.

As for the power output, what revision is the car for a start? And unless you get (or have got) a power output with the car as standard, any figure you get or aim for now won't mean a great deal (the car may have been down on power to start with etc).
