check to see if the restrictor pill is in the bottom hose on the 3 port as ( someone correct me if i'm wrong ) they wont boost over about 0.5 without it in.

* Above is the Subaru OEM 3-port - note connections.


* But if you have an after market 3-port, then connect as follows:-

"NO" (Normally Open)
Vac line from turbo compressor nozzle's nipple

"COM" (Common)
Vac line to wastegate actuator housing's nipple

"NC" (Normally Closed)
Vac line to OEM resonator box (or aftermarket resonator delete pipe or turbo intake hose - whatever you have on your car).
Or can be left VTA (but make sure the above mentioned intake port option is bunged up, if VTA).

Try asking on the WMI thread (General). There should be somebody on there who could help you out.

I should have thought of that yesterday when you were asking!

And yep, circa <1.0 bar will be correct for a 260PS MY95 WRX.

You're all back to normal - does it feel transformed now?!
