Default Returning to standard boost controller

Having to sell my '95 WRX Wagon, and therefore have decided to remove the bolt-on goodies to sell on there own (Pm's welcome for details).

Anyway, I have removed the Greddy ECU and the Profec Spec 2 Boost controller, but I need some advise on how to reconnect the various hoses back to how Subaru intended.

Could some one please describe what to plumb in where (pictures would be really useful as I am somewhat of a DIY amateur)





Thanks!!!!


Ps. It a 1995 WRX Wagon, dark blue. 155k. Very tidy care, no expence spared on maintenance. PM if you are interested and I'll happily provide more details.

Yes I'm selling the boost controller. Still have the original box & all the bumph in it.
Looking for £160 (I cover postage on this item)

Feeling a bit numb now, but when I went to do this I bottled it, so could someone please clarify what I've got to do here. It seems simple enough, but worried I'll plumb it up wrong & brake something.



From the first pic I took and the advise from burbling1, I think "C" goes to the turbo "W" (on the pic above) Then "B" goes to the actuator "Y", and "A" goes to "X" (this is what I'm not sure about).

Also there seems to be a mismatch on the pipe diameters. "C" is smaller than the other two.

The pipe from "X" makes it way to what I've marked "Z", what is this?, and goes through a tee piece that went to the boost control in the car and is now blanked off.




I think I'm confused because the Greddy unit only has 2 feeds, whereas the standard one has 3...

Hope that makes sense.
