Hi all,

Wanted to get people's opinion on how to best/easiest way to do this.

Im using an eboost which is mounted on the turbo side of the engine.

The lines off the solenoid go under the inlet manifold, seemingly into the abyss.

Am i better off using some long nose pliers and reaching under the manifold yo undo the hoses from there or should i remove the whole line around the engine?

Are there any hardline mounting tabs under the manifold?

Iv looked into the workshop manual,the lines dont look like they tee off into the manifold...or am i wrong?

Thanks

You have to run a line from the plenum to the steel hose that runs around the back of engine, I can't remember off the top of my head if it is top or middle hose

If you pull both off the get off one of the wastegate lines at the actuator and get someone to blow into it then feel for which one has air coming out of it and connect to that one

I put my solenoids under the brake boost for less heat and less visibility then run hose from plenum to solenoid then from solenoid to steel line

There is one tab on intake side that has bolt that goes through it then through head and bolts into block, there are three lines ( 2 x air and 1 x water ) that are connected to each other

I will also suggest getting something better then an Eboost

thanks for the response. i ended up having the battery and cooler pipe off the car to create some room.

you can juuuuuuuust see where the hoses connect to the hard lines. managed to get some pliers in there to shift the hose clamp, then i just yanked off the hose.

plugged them up by looping them with some random vac hose i had. havent started the car yet as im doing a few other things before i put it all back together.

i bought the car with an eboost lol, its primitive but it works fine! when i get a haltech ill get a boost control kit too.. im due time.

    • You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."
    • Save yourself the headache of an alarm. Immobilizer on the signal side of the main EFI relays so it won't start is good enough. DIY killswitch is the same thing except instead of a nice passive system you need to remember to switch it on and off.
    • Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>
    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
