Default D16y8 turbo questions...

What did you do with that air sensor that plugs into the intake pipe? Will i throw a CEL if that sensor reads boost? And does anyone know if its possible to lower boost levels on an internally wastegated turbo (maybe with a MBC??? ), cause i've heard that you can only raise boost levels and not go any lower than what its set at...

thanks a lot!

You dont place the iat before the turbo.. If you do that the ecu isnt getting accurate reading for the intake temps since the intercooler is going to change them.. I would put the iat in the charge pipe about 6" from the throttlebody..

That's what I'm going to do.
