I just put a Turbosmart MBC on the twin and I set it to pull 14psi on the primary. I set it up from loading it up in 4th gear. But when I nail it to get to the secondary I get nothing but VOD. The secondary isn't spooling up like it used to. I plumbed the MBC correctly and blocked off hose 23 but I was wondering if I plumbed hose 23 into the hose that goes from the MBC to the wastegate will it help? Oh and it spikes a bit too. Any ideas?

Any ideas?

Single conversion.

get rid of it dude.. too much headaches on the twins.. but Shane has the right pic.. from memory he called me on how to connect it.. or was it vice versa?

I must admit it doesn't feel much faster. It spools up quicker but driving isn't as smooth.

no i didnt call you about that it was the vacuum hoses of the intercooler......

Hmm i thought that the MBC reduced the VOD on mine, actually allowed me to run some decent boost, although I am not sure the car really likes having it on there.

I am going to need some sort of diagram I think. 23 comes off the T and 10 is going from where to where? Thanks for the photo Shane but I need help. Damn brain doesn't like me.

of hand the 23 an 10 come from the turbo and wastegate i think.

I think we have a different setup as 23 comes off the T to the left guard but 10 goes from the guard to the manifold and nowhere near the turbo or wastegate. I see no way of connecting 23 and 10 on my car.

ok...must be different

my car has both 23 an 10 going into the inner guard. just near my battery they have a joiner in both of them. i pulled them apart and the connected the engine side of 23 an 10 to the turbo smart....shane

hope this helps if not sorry

[robt]

Yep thats helped. I now know what to do. Boost.

[B4TT]

Yes it does.

Quit being a nancy!




Hahahaa.

Saying that, I was driving in the heat yesterday (about 35 degrees) and she pinged around 6500K rpm.

LOL! yeah your right... the little s**t loves being pumped full
Ping..... Hmm now that's something I haven't heard in my car for a long time

i hope you have a boost gauge and take your time adjusting it to the boost level you want....i run 1.2 bar

Hey guys I setup my MBC like in the pic thats on this thread. http://www.ozliberty...hlight=solenoid
It seems to be the wrong way to do it. I will be disconnecting the factory solenoid hoses (10,23) and using my bleed valve in between like Shane showed as 10 goes to the black box (of death).
Thanks guys you helped more in 2 days than I got in 6 months. Legends

[legacy rsk]

no problem

As I was looking at the 10 and 23 connectors that come out of the guard I saw with disbelief that 10 was joined to 23 and vice versa. I wasn't me. Now I know why I have had dramas. Stupid goonbag previous modders.
