94 WRX import - no boost
Hi, I'm new to Scoobynet. I hope you guys will be kind 'cos I have a '66 T2 vw
with a WRX 2.0L turbo (import) lump. It was an unfinished project which I have now nearly completed. She drives well with a whole lot more power than my previous busses. But, according to my boost gauge (plumbed into one of the inlet manifold vac lines) it only boosts to 0 (minus .6Bar on idle).
The turbo is a TD05H. 3 port Boost control solenoid
The checks I've done so far are:
Turbine/compressor spin freely
Compressor nut not loose
Plumbing seems to be OK (as per pics I found on this forum)
Wastegate seems to seat nicely
Wastegate actuator seems operational
Wastegate actuator solenoid seems operational
Pressure exchange solenoid seems operational
Could the MAP be a problem?
I don't seem to have a restrictor pill in the line from the bottom port on the BCS to the Air intake
Any advice gratefully accepted.
Thanks
Cameron

Thannks,matthewn & mickywrx,
The loom is scoobi from the donor car and it's a W6 ecu. All the wiring back to the ecu checks out. Any ideas?
