here is a diagram


 

Directions for installing a manual boost controller (MBC)

   1. Remove old restricter pill lines that connect the wastegate to the turbo outlet vac port.
   2. Disconnect original OEM electric boost controller sensor line.
   3. Take the extra line removed and connect it to either side of your new MBC.
   4. Connect the exit port of the MBC to the turbo inlet vac port.
   5. Connect the entrace to port of the MBC to the wastegate vac port.
   6. Mount MBC anywhere you please, close is better because less chance of a leak.
   7. Adjust MBC according to manufacturers directions how many PSI you want to increase, or decrease.

oh ya and on our cars you need to electrically disconnect the sensor to raist the boost past 10 i believe

its 12 ...but yea you must disconnect the overboost switch ( on the firewall, its round and has a white connector below it, and a vaccume line connected to it....remove it completely...)

those units are pretty cool little rigs... there essentially a boost activated switch, preset for 12 psi.... you can basically use it to controll anything you want to come on at 12psi...  
IE.. nitrous or water meth.....cool huh

Ghost the diagram didnt show up. Can I get another one? I disconnected the overboost plug, (am I supposed to unhook the vacuume line from it too?) cut the line going from my wastegate to the intake, and installed my MBC between it. (One line going to the intake, the other going to the wastegate.) Is this correct?
