EMERGENCY PLZ HELP!! MBC problem
Hi. I just installed my turbo xs high performance boost controller but i dont think its installed correctly because no matter what i do the boost always just keeps on going.
here is what i did.
I disconnected the 2 hoses comming out of the factory boost controller solenoid and i capped off the 2 black nipples with electrical tape and seald it off. I then cut the hose going from the blow off valve to the intake manifold and put a T in it and connected a hose to that T. The other end of that hose i put in the blue {bottom} nipple of the Turbo XS high performance boost controller. I then disconnected the hose going from the turbo and i capped that nipple off with electrical tape and sealed it. I then capped off the hose that used to be plugged into the factory boost controller soledoid to the intake and i sealed that off. I then plugged a hose into the wastegate actuator and plugged that into the bronz nipple on the turbo xs boost controller. the bronz one has an arrow on it.
I did the pre setup like the insructions said where i turned the bronz {coarse adjuster untill the ball inside stopped moving and i turned the blue {fine} adjuster clockwise till it stopped then turned it counterclockwise twice. I hear a sound like air comming from the boost controller but dont feel anything. the vacuum is fine atidle. But when i press on the gas the boost just keeps going and going. I try to stop it when it passes 20 psi but has gone to 24 psi once. The last setting i used was the course adjuster was opened counterclockwise about 3-4 turns. The boost got to about 21 spe then a LOUD screach was heard so i gave up and parked the car. PLEASE help me guys.

I just installed that same boost controller a few days ago. The hose coming from the blow off valve goes to the nipple with the arrow and the hose from the wastegate goes to the blue nipple.
Hope this helps.

I received these instructions from Nathan at TurboXS just today:
...the short of it is that you'll locate the turbo, find the 2 hoses that are connected to the T fitting (which leads back to the Factory boost control solenoid under the air box); then pull the hoses off the ends of the T. Cap both ends of the T fitting and zip tie it up out of the way. Then you'll extend those two hoses and run them to the ports of the boost controller.
The hose from the compressor cover goes to the brass inlet on the boost controller. The hose from the waste-gate actuator goes to the blue port of the boost controller.
Hope this helps.
