  1. Yeah, posted so that it might help someone else if they have the same problem as me . Indeed. Contacted the seller thou and they comfirmed that they have had problems with some earlier version of those BoV's. They are sending me a new one thou, so i might test it just for fun . Thanks alot again all
  2. Sorry for the late answer, i've been really busy. The problem is solved now thou, the SSQV was the problem . Thanks alot for all the answers and all the help, you saved me alot of time, work and money .
  3. Oops, forum lagged out i think?. Tried to send the post but nothing happend and now it all showed up soz for that!. Yeah, got help from my brother a year ago or so when we plugged it in the first time. Gonna check over those things and then i'll try again . I'll be back with how it went. Thanks alot guys, i appreciate all the help .
  4. Will do it tomorrow and try it again. Had the stock one plugged in before and it still acted like this. But going to try to go back to so much stock as possible, so i can find out where the problem is. Ah, haven't heard it clicked once.. is there any way to find out if it really works as it should? maybe try to connect the + and - to a battery? or is it a bad idea?. Will try the bike pump method aswell!. Cheers for the fast answer thou

  8. Hello again, i tried my AVC-R and it still doesn't work.. (connected the solenoid between the intercooler pipe and the wastegate). However, there is a hose coming from the avc-r.. should it be connected to this?. And here is a pic of the solenoid Gonna try my mechanical boost controller tomorrow if i have time. Btw, shouldn't the ebc solenoid make a clicking sound?. Thanks .
  9. Thanks, will try it out later today . I'll be back too keep you updated!
  10. Thanks! will try and see how it works. I think i'll have some time over at work later today, i'll see if i can get the EBC to work as it should. However, i use this And the solenoid only have a IN and a OUT connection. So my question is, how do i connect it the right way? Do i need a T? or should i just connect the intercooler pipe to the IN port and the OUT port to the wastegate?. Thanks for the fast answer btw
  11. Yeah i use new hoses. However, i tried to put a hose on the wastegate and blocked it just to see how much boost i could get.. and i still get around 0.3 - 0.4 bar. Is that the right way to get max boost? or what should/could i try more?. I'm starting to wonder if it's the catalytic converter that blocks too much? it's taken from my brothers Volvo V70. But maybe that doesn't affect the boost at all?. I recorded a video on my way home from work too show you how the car/boost acts. Was driving while holding camera but i'll guess the video works Thanks again all .
  12. Oh, so there can be some problem with the restrictor?. Or did i get it all wrong? Haha
  13. Thanks for all the answers, you sure know what you are talking about . Glad to see that so many take their time and help. I connected a hose from the intercooler pipe to a T, then to the bottom slot on the solenoid, and The other hose from the T to the wastegate. Then i connected a hose from the top slot on the solenoid to the pipe under the intercooler pipe (recycling pipe?) Still Low boost, I'm at work till late tonight, so I guess I'll try to plug in the ebc if i get some time over (I'm running stock solenoid now). Will make a better post when i get home and have time . Thanks again all!
  14. Sorry for late answer! I was at work. Thanks alot for all the answers. I have been trying to google the answer but still haven't found anything yet, and you all seem experienced so.. . I'm using an aftermarket gauge, i have tried two different ones and both showed the same. Also tested to plug in some old Apexi EBC and got the same boost with that one aswell, that one also showed how much boost i had, and i topped almost 0.4 bar. I have tried a mechanic boost controller aswell but i'm still stuck with the same boost pressure. I'm using the high boost mod btw, by grounding the black cable that goes to the solenoid. I'm gonna check over the hoses again and see if i connected them right. Found another picture on the internet now so i'm gonna try that first, so i'm sure i just haven't connected em all wrong.. let's just hope that it is that easy thou . Thanks alot for the help so far, i'll be back later today to keep you updated!
  15. Hello, I've some wierd issue with my car. I only get half boost pressure(?). I've looked over the vacuum hoses, looked after leaks around the pipes.. But it all looked good. Also checked the ECU and had no fault codes. I have no mods other then a SSQV and some aftermarket air filter. I hope this is the right Forum part to ask this. Thanks. Robbin
