Default Restrictor Pill For STI V5 ??

Managed to go and loose the original pipe for the boost solenoid.Dammit!!

What size restrictor pill do i need. ?? 0.8, 1.0 , 1.2, 1.5mm

Was hitting 1.2 to 1.3 Bar boost previously on standard Vf28 (Mapped by JGM)

Also does it go in the pipe from the turbo compressor housing to the 3 port ( Actuator to Compressor housing T Pieced together )

Or does it go from the bottom "Nipple" on the 3 port to the Turbo Inlet pipe?

Have used the search function but havent found a definitive answer on my version of car??

someone posted a great guide on pill size and location, I'll try to find it. On my UK car its a 1.2mm orifice thats placed in the pipe from the turbo nipple. I'm almost sure the STI cars are supposed to be 0.8mm.

I changed to a 3 port recently and the pill had to be moved to the bottom port on the 3 port.
