I bought one of the Turbotech manual boost controllers off EBay after reading the great reviews on it on the SAU boards. I installed it today and it seems regardless of how far out I wind the controll (wound out = less boost, wound in = more boost).

I keeps on hitting around 1.2 bar boost (I've taken my foot off when it gets around here. Can anyone see what I've done wrong in the pic?

Any help is greatly appreciated. I just want it sitting around 0.8 bar for the moment.

I'll be out tonight at the museum so if anyone sees this and feel like heading out if they know a solution it would be greatly appreciated. :rofl:

Whats will all the other hosing that T's off here and there?

Run a simple hose from the compressor housing or plenum straight to the bleeder then straight to the wastegate actuator.

Pull it apart and check the spring isn't caught on the bleeders relief hole burr.

The instructions show to plumb the wastegate actuator to the t section just below the controller screw, and the bottom section runs to a T section which goes to engine and blow off valve. As far as I can see I have done this with the remaining hoses that run to the bov, engine and one of them also plumbs to the induction pipe that the air box connects too.

Does anyone have a basic bleed valve that I could borrow to test out if I've got all the hoses correctly set up? Any help would be much appreciated,

It would probably only take 5 minutes to hook up and I'd take the car for a spin and see what happens. If it works properly I know the controller I have is faulty.

Maybe just do this at the museum on Friday night when everyone meets up or something.

Thanks guys!
