Intercooler And Wastegate Actuator Question

[jake_gtst]

Hello, I am pretty new and know the basics but I am no pro.

http://members.shaw.ca/dsm.1000q/Enginepri...poutletpipe.htm

Here shown is the turbo outlet tube, and there is a little tube attached to the main tube that goes to the wastegate actuator.

I assume this is basically how its like for the RB25DET? Even though the engine shown is not an RB.

My Question is if you get an aftermarket intercooler and piping, once replaced, how would you be able to connect the tube that goes to the wastegate actuator to the main IC pipe?

Or are things configuired differently on the RB25DET?

Thanks,

Jake.

Couple of options.

1.) drill and tap a new vacuum nipple on to the new intercooler pipe before installing it and attach your vacuum hose to it.

2.) drill and tap a vacuum nipple to the compressor cover (front of the turbo - need to remove compressor cover from the turbo to do this) and attach hose to that.

3.) buy a "T" piece and attach it to the BOV vacuum line and attach your vacuum hose to that.

All get same result.

The shortest lngth of vacuum hose is best (compressor cover) but they all work well.
