can i move the fitting from the side to top of the wg and just leave the side open?



i wanna run a mbc for when i go tune so i was thinking about moving the side fitting since i don't have another fitting for the top. or can anyone donate the fitting to me?

 

You need to use the side fitting, the top fitting is for when you are using an electronic boost controller.

 

u can take the wastegate apart and move the side fitting where u want so it's allot easier to get to and you are able to hide the wastegate vac line much easier

so for a mbc, i need to run it through the side port? not the top?

yup, top port is for EBC only, you can tee off that side port for the MBC.

 

sweeeeet. looks like i won't have to get another fitting then. lol most ppl place their mbc's under the hood right?

 

the solenoid itself yes, but they make in-cockpit switch to go with them as well...i think. might only be for the dual stage mbc's though.

 

if oyu liek your motor you wont put boost only on the top port.....

by bleeding boost on the top port it just keeps the wastegate shut....

by putting boost into the side port it will be pushign up trying to open the gate after it overcomes the spring pressure

 

if u need the fitting i got it... and u can have it for FREE...

 

I wouldnt allow yourself to control the boost from the inside. It can stay in the engine bay because the only time you need access to it is when your tuning on the dyno. If you have access to it inside the cabin, youll be tempted to turn up the boost and next thing you know, you'll be making a thread about how you blew it up!

so the side port has to be connected to a vac source and the top port is to be connected to an ebc? i'm kinda lost on your post. lol like it makes sense, but i just can't put it together in my head... sorry i'm slow tonight
