http://img687.imageshack.us/i/img0444q.jpg/ The blue line with the t piece out of it (running to the manifold) is the only line running to the gate. It is running from the front housing to the gate, with the t-piece to the manifold...is this incorrect? But even if the spring is a 20psi spring as you said, shouldn't the turbo be working atleast?

Here is some pictures of the engine bay..any help guys? http://img295.imageshack.us/gal.php?g=img0443j.jpg

Bridgestone Re92's make some decent smoke

thanks for the replies guys, will check to see if there is a spring in the wastegate in the morning.. the afr hasn't been tuned and is running a standard computer, so should make 5-6psi.. will also grab a pic in the morning for you to have a gander at, the engine bay is a real mess at the moment though lol. i did this afternoon remove the pod and afm from in front of the front turbo housing to see if the compressor wheel could spin freely - it definately can..

Hey guys, Just joined up to see if anyone can help with a problem I'm having my 25det in my passage. It is a highmounted td06-19c, with and 50mm (unsure of brand) wastegate. No other modifications done to the motor yet. I brought the motor from a guy who had it in his written off hr31 coupe. I saw the motor running/turbo spooling in the car before we pulled it out... Now the problem is that since we have put the motor in (day before yesterday) and got the car driveable after completing the s13 coilover conversion etc.. the turbo does not spool (cannot hear air being sucked in/wastegate not working). I am thinking that some lines are plumbed up the wrong way on the turbo?? If anyone has any starting points for me to start troubleshooting from would be a great help The car idles and drives fine, although is excessively slow, due to the turbo not working. The car is also getting extremely hot (water bubbling in radiator after 5 minutes of normal driving). Any help would be appreciated!! THANKS!
