Hello John
Have you settled on the ultimate setup for your Dawes Device?
Are you using an additional restrictor(bleed?) valve as well as having drilled the Dawes bleed to 1.5mm? Any photos?
Are you still making adjustments, or are you happy the way it now is?

If so where do you purchase the restrictor(bleed?) valve? And where in the system have you installed it.
The restrictor is actually an adjustable bleed is it not?

It seems to me that your setup so far has come as close to "perfect" with the Dawes fitted.

Some one should take some pictures of "before and after" their Dawes installation and post them on this site, so that the rest of us will have it easier to do the setup.

In fact, I should be getting my Dawes next week and plan to do just that, if I ever figure out how to post jpegs on this site

Thanks.
email: jdefreitas@wow.net with any info

 

I have no pictures of the correct install, so will not post my earlier confusing untidy pictures.

I have no separate bleed valve now. You just drill out the hole to 1.5mm on a MY98-02, swap the grey hose from the end it is attached to to the other end, plug this onto the turbo nipple and use the existing clips. The other end plugs into the original wastegate hose. You could take it over the top of the coolant hose and cable tie it. Remove and cap off the hose with the T-piece. Pictures say a thousand words. This is just regurgitating the same setup "The Best (TM)" or whatever I posted previously - nothing has changed.
