Some turbo install ?'s

[Drift]

Hey all, just finalizing the install and had some ?'s about where to tap sources for certain things ...

1. Wastegate2. Begi/Cartech rising rate FPR3. DSM BOV4. Boost Gauge5. MSD 6BTM

I've read that the FPR line is a good source, but for which ones? Also where is a good place to get the hoses and T's? Maybe local auto stores carry them?

Thanks,

Jeremy

Everything will go to the FPR line except for the wastegate(unless you want slightly higher boost). The wastegate should go somewhere close to the turbo on the hotpipe (assuming you dont have an EBC). You can find vacuum tees in most pepboys, Kragen, Napa etc. Be sure to get good vacuum hose so it doesnt collapse/expand under vacuum/boost.

Since I'm welding my own pipes - do I need to make a nipple of some sorts directly on the hot pipe for the wastegate?

Thats what i did, had some old carbs laying around and i chopped off one of there vacuum nipples and attached it to my hotpipe, like a foot away from the turbo. Most turbos also have a nipple on the compressor you can attach the wastegate signal there.

Alrite ... Thanks. And very nice ride.

I have another ?. Where to I route the blow off gases to? Back to the intake pipe after the MAF?

yep on the compressor intake after the mafs.
