It should look like this

Im sure thats the way i installed it

[stewari]

that is the way it was instaled and my thoughts on the problem are either a intercooler pipe connector has poped off or a boost line has come off some where. and its running rich and wont come onto boost at all wont idle and if you hold the pedle in at the same spot it will idle the jump 500rpm then go back to where it was and do this in perfect sequence. if anyone can comferm this or disagree with this plz tell. cheers stuart

Hey mate, if your still in the market for a turbo, Ill be selling my HKS 2530kai bolt on turbo for R33 GTST within the next week or so, reason for sale is im getting a 3076R installed. The turbo has done around 8,000km and has very little to no shaft play.. its a very responsive turbo and has great mid range power.. PM me if your interested for an inspection...

PS. in that pic above, it doesnt look like you have blocked off your stock solenoid, someone correct me if im wrong, but isnt the stock solenoid still connected to the ECU and therefore tells the ECU there is nothing connected to it and cuts out fuel (therefore the popping)?

ive added pics below of mine, the stock solenoid is sitting behind the Turbosmart T, notice i got 2 hoses still connected to the stock one and the one thats meant to go back to the wastegate is blocked off..

stock ecu? going over ~11-12psi will probably feel like you have hit a wall @ 4500-5000rpm. the ecu kills off all the power makes a few large pops and bangs in the exhaust and then continues on. the easiest way around that issue is to just stick to 10-11psi.
