It was a mess yeah.

But I did get my parts, and it took 2 days, after I spoke to the owner (he sent my parts 2nd day air at his expense).

So yeah.. it is up you. Believe me.. I was PISSED.

The verdict is... as long as you CALL and order from Jef Bastien, or Mike Huml DIRECTLY... you'll be ok.

they have some fools working as sales people.. but those 2 are ok!

Atleast ONE thing is certain.. they arn't ripoff artists. The owner did everything possible and more to make it up to me.

So you can walk away knowing this... if ANYTHING goes wrong... you're covered when you talk to the owner.

I know my questions are now a few posts up, so not sure if anyone will see them..

so I was hoping if you guys could look up and see if you know the answer.

cheers

The nipple on the IC pipe goes to your boost controller BUT since you don't have one connect it to your wastegate actuator on your turbo. You should then be running 7-10psi (whatever your wg actuator is set at) AND its funny because i got my 6bolt swap done before you got your turbo done =P isn't that some irony for you haha.

yeah verrrrry funny!!

ha ha (if I didn't still need your help I'd sent one of the robots after you!)

hey,

I thought the hose from the wastegate solenoid goes to the actuator nippe.

So what happens to those 2 hoses attached to yhe solenoid?

Damnrookie · 07-05-2008, 01:49 PM

Can you guys help me connect the hoses?

this is what I think...

A -> D
B -> F
E -> nipple on waste gate actuator (thats how it was on my stock) but Clock mentioned that I -> wastegate act nipple. confused here.

also..

G - > C (?)

please look at the stock turbo pic.

wondering what that threaded hole is on the 16 G and what it is for (as it leads nowhere .. threaded dead end)

7inchexhaust · 07-05-2008, 02:18 PM

Hehe....just get a manual boost controller while your at it.

BTW: the boost source is going to be 'I' (this is what used to be the nipple on your old t25 and is replacing that since the 16g doesn't have one)

So where you asked "Is this 'C'?" i guess on the t25 is actually 'I' now. And I dont think anything goes into the 'c' for your new setup.

OK so if I get this correctly...

'I' -> one of the solenoid wategate hoses (there are 2 of wich one was split into 2 going to the nipple of my t25 and the other to the nipple of the wastegate actuator).

Am I correct, man this is confusing.

Let me reread some literature to see what each of thoses hoses do.

If I get my answer I'll let you know. If you guys want to help me out here before I find it.. please do!!!

gracias!

To clear up your confusion, i dont recommend you use your stock boost control solenoid. So you have two options

A)connect the nipple from the pipe (boost source) to the wastegate acuator and run 7-10psi

OR

B)buy a manual boost controller and set your boost at whatever you want to. (keep in mind with the stock fuel system and a 16g you probably wont want to go past 15psi)

Ahhhhhh gotcha!!!

So

from new pics: J->K

ok let me put some pics here.

Can you guys look through all these pics and try to catch any mistakes I made? 25ct for each mistake you find.

And again.. if you're a gorgeous green eyed blonde (or redheaded) babe, you'll get my phone number!

Let me ask some Q's according to the pics.

Pic titled "gasket": Do I put RTV on both sides of the gasket?

And this gasket and the oil return gasket are the only ones getting RTV right?

So from the pics shown... the only hoses left are the IC nipple to the actuator correct?

And I discard BOTH hoses from the solenoid correct? Can I just unplug them?

one more question...

In the kit form SBR I got 4 T clamps, of with one is different. (I believe specs is 25 psi).

Where does this different one go?

no wait.. one more..

IN the sacred Turbo bible Bass wrote, there was mention of 3 water hoses (on the turbo). I only identified 2. The 2 water lines. Where is the third hose?

No up my &^%#$% jokes, nor "bend over I'll show" you funnies either!

There are only 2 water lines, and it looks like you hooked them up correctly.

No problem, glad to help as long as you can clearly post what your looking for (unlike some noobs out there).

Damnrookie · 07-06-2008, 07:05 PM

Hey I started my car.

Is it normal that white smoke comes from underneath the heat shield?

I figured, it is probably the W40 oil that is burning off of it, but I ran it for like30 seconds to a minute and the smoke just gets worse.

When you first start up the car it doesn't smoke.. about 5 secs later a little , then it smokes more.

not sure if its coming from the manifold or the turbo.

advise?

edit:

Some thoughts:

I removed the heatshield and it definitely comes from or the manifold or the manifold to turbo gasket.

I sniffed the smoke.. and it doesn't really smell like the muffler exhaust that leads me to believe it isn't leaking exhaust. (but smoke is smoke... I may not be able to distinguish exhaust gasses and what ever it is that is smoking on the manifold.

Secondly, when I turn off the car, the manifold keeps smoking, and gradually deminishes. which also leads me to believe it isn't exhaust gasses as the engine is not producing any more exhaust... but then again, maybe that is just residue exhaust escaping the combuston chamber.

I don't know man... it just looks BAD watching smoke come from that area of the car.

What do I do?

RadDsm · 07-06-2008, 07:15 PM

Did you prime the turbo first?

What is that?
I read that it's filling the turbo cavety with engine oil.

I have not done that. Is it too late? id I destroy it? have been running it on and off for 30 minutes to an hour already..

Do I need to take that whole thing off again to do this? Or after running a bit the chamber will fill with oil on its own?

and also, there is a nipple on the airintake nozzle on the filter side. What goes there? Was that one of the solenoid hoses?

Getting some oil in the turbo before you start it up. I think you unplug the coil pack, then crank it for around 15sec, do that for three intervals and it should be good. Maybe someone else can confirm that? Or disconnect the CAS, you shouldnt get any spark or fuel then.
