welshpug 1,662 Posted November 15, 2008 between the turbo and the engine of course Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stealth_pug 0 Posted November 15, 2008 Are you telling me that the airflow from the turbo to the engine goes through a 3mm hose! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M@tt 77 Posted November 15, 2008 have you got a blanked/plugged up takeoff on the inlet manifold anywhere? i'm not overly familiar with STDT i'm afraid but on my 8v turbo engine there's 4mm takeoffs on the inlet manifold Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 99 Posted November 15, 2008 If there are no spare take-offs on the manifold then you can put it in the short hose that goes from the turbo to the actuator. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreigner 0 Posted November 16, 2008 ok there is black hard thin hose going from inlet manifold to injection pump. that's the one you need to connect your boost gauge to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stealth_pug 0 Posted November 16, 2008 ok there is black hard thin hose going from inlet manifold to injection pump. that's the one you need to connect your boost gauge to. yup cheers mate, figured that out this afternoon. Giving a reading of about 11 psi on full load in 3rd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreigner 0 Posted November 17, 2008 dont blow it up. Don't go over 18psi. Do you know how to pump the turbo? and set the injection pump? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stealth_pug 0 Posted November 17, 2008 nope to both of those. Wasn't planning on putting it up too high lol, using it as a daily driver so want to keep my fuel economy!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
