It should have a + and - on the rotatable knob.

And if you have to re install it, the flow can only happen one way thru the T for it to work.

What gasket was broken?

It's either you had a massive boost leak or you have installed the T backwards.

It was 2 gaskets the manifold gasket and the turbo gasket but i looked at the diagram that came with it and i pretty sure it was set up correctly, and there isnt any indicators on it to say which is which.

Ok i got it sort i read through other install pages and found that it was due to not knowing enough, was just around the wrong way, its at 12psi but its still getting a little boost cut but not as bad as it was. I also took off the hoses going to the solenoid as i say that before and alot of people had done the same so if it works for them it will work for me.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
