yeah i just want to run off the spring tho as i have no boost control

okay mate, at the moment i have no vac lines on or off the turbo or wastegate

got a my turbo setup on and gone for drive and i have no boost at all, im not runnning any form of boost controller and running straight off the spring, do i need any vac lines coming off the wastegate?

just went for the first drive and it is pouring out blue smoke and the turbo isnt spooling how do you setup a external wastegate and im not running any form of boost control?

i bought the polybush enigne mounts of steve gt mate so dont have a patrt nnumber im afraid

right so todays update, K24 is still not complete, not alot left tho, all i need is some new nuts and bolts and to cut th intercooler piping which is simple enough here are some pics of the work how it looked at the start bumper removed for ease then to remove the old hybrid from this to this now thats out the way time to fit the new one old setup v new setup then i hit a few little problems, the old turbo kit used a different size nut and bolt for the downpipe and i need some new bolts for the bracing i put everyhitng back on to see how it looked once finished so here is an idea and finally the mess of the garage afterwards i wanted to heat wrap it but the manifold is so sexy i couldnt hide it it will all be finished next weekend,i was booked in to have my new midsection made up but will put that off a week to finish this big thanks to T J Wilson who popped over today and lent a hand and also i recieved some polybush engine mounts of steve GT on friday so will fit them soon all comments welcome as usual

oil feed return pipe doesnt sit quite right so im going to have to rotate the turbo slightly but i cant get the down pipe off which means i cant get the mani off and now this all means i cant heatwrap any of it

lol cheers mate! im now stuck!
