Hi there
I been having boost issues for ages
Which way round does the standard pipe fit with restrictor pill in
I have restrictor pill in long section of standard pipe which is on the actuator side
My car is a w reg classic turbo 2000

 

wrong side, on a 2port - the pill should be in the pipe leading off the turbo nose, before the T-piece

 

I do that and got reallt bad boost issues
Real bad fluctuations

 

Standard size pill is 1.2mm in UK turbo, and 0.9mm in STi

Pipe from the t piece should be connected to the side port of the solenoid, and the vent to inlet connected to the bottom solenoid port

 

Ye that all good I must be running actuator pressure but if u put your. Foot down
Will boost to 0.7 and keep foot down will creep to 0.9
Now if I fit pill the way your sayin
I hit boost and goes from 1.0 bar to 1.5 possible higher but gauge on has 1.5 max
And car surges and fluctuates between 1.0 and 1.5

 

So we saying long piece of pipe on the nipple that on turbo
And the short bend on the actuator
