Changed the turbo from TD04 MY99 to new shape Bugeye WRX TD04, having boost problems, its not holding boost. Boost is peaking and the car shoots off like a rocket but for some reason its not holding boost! Does this mean i need a boost contorller to set boost at certain level as its setup for newer shape car?
Seems like its kinda boosting then letting off, so you kinda get a rocking motion when go faster pedal is pressed hard!
Thanks in advance!

the resistor is a very small metal thingy that goes in the thin boost pipe that goes from the ic intake pipe of the turbo to the t-piece. it has a small hole straight throught the centre of it. you should feel the thin pipe with a very hard thing in it. it's about half a centimeter long
sorry bud

yeah, thats the pipe mate. you should have three pipes going to a t-piece sitting right above the turbo. the one on the right goes to the wee metal pipe of the turbo inlet from the ic. that black/grey pipe should have the restrictor in it. after that, come back and tell us how you got on.

Right i have them both.
Theres a long black one firmly attached to the boost solenoid? Comes over from that direction (where alarm housing siren is) Then on that there is a T piece, with two grey hoses coming off. One to the tubo housing and one to the actuator. Is this right??
Please help, gotta drive a long distance tomorrow! Dont wanna break it lol!
