New subscriber here, looking to put a turbo on my 2.5 Dakota and it is so hard to find straight to the point videos but yours is right on. Thanks for the info God bless
wow out of all the vids i have searched and looked at they are all long and drawn out like a bad infomercial thanks so much for posting your straight to the point vid on this explained in like 3 mins or so im down to the last mile to getting my ride going . good luck getting yours going thanks again you rock .....👍👍👍
Bro, seriously speaking, I watched 6 videos before finding your video. You have a gift my man. You answered all my questions one by one without me asking! And then showed me as You answered them!!! Subbed!
I know you did say vacuum source, but the only clarification I would add for anybody is that the BOV has to be routed to a spot AFTER the throttle plate 👍🏻
Would I be able to just tie it all into a boost block? Like eliminate all the T’s and run all lines straight to a boost block that runs off brake booster?
I just did a kit on my jeep, instructions suck, no explanation to vac. lines. Been on y.t. with no luck, till your vid. This should be titled different, or put at the top of the list as a must watch!!
Thanks for the comment. That's a great idea by the way. I'll be changing the title soon. Also I'm glad my vid was useful to you. Thanks for watching 😁👍
good shit bro been looking everywhere for a explanation for the waste gate ,cause my turbo dont got a vaccum port . thanks easy , simple, and straight to the point
Question. The wastegate has two vacuum ports. If I am only using the side port Like you did in this video, do I need to block off the vacuum port on top or can I leave it open, unplug? Thanks for this video like everyone said, I can actually understand it.
Man this had to be there best video ever explaining the routing. Direct and straight to the dang point. No having to watch 20 mins of noting important to get this info. You are pure gold. Hell yes! Only question does running those tees cause any kinda issues if your running higher boost levels? Like around 15psi?
No. My current setup is pushing 15psi and I'm running a tee off the rear vacuum port of the intake manifold. I haven't had any issues. One thing that would help is to use zip ties on all vacuum ports to prevent them from coming off/leaking.
Sir I just subbed because of this video. If you make this video that's this great imagine what other info you could give in longer videos can't say enough thank you! 🎉
That's correct, your engine will receive all the boost your turbo could possibly throw at it. Hopefully the engine can handle it 😂 Thanks for watching 😁👍
I like your style. All of it. Articulate and good lighting. Just a really good and informative video. Thanks for cutting out the bullshit and being real about things.
Thank you! Been looking at how to plumb mine with the boost controller, which is best to pull from and why...? The compressor housing is just used to go to the waste gate, correct?
Thanks you very much! I have one more question, my ecu has a built in map sensor and I ran out of vacuum ports, is it possible to put a tee and share it for a map sensor? Or is it better to read map on a single nipple?
I wonder if there is a triple t type thing. Based on your explanation in thinking im running from my turbo to fuel regulator, wastegate and blow off valve
Great video...I m just confused about the vacuum line off the TURBO to the wastegate ...is that not boost pressure, not vacuum pressure ? its pushing from the turbo..?? I get the vacuum from the manifold. Please explain..thanks
That's correct. Both will work. Turbo or intake vacuum. Also all vacuum turns into boost once boost builds. That's the reason for having a tricked or tuned map sensor. A stock map sensor once it reads boost it'll kill power to the engine. The only vacuum port that wont allow boost is the brake booster because of the one way valve.. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching 😁👍
MAN i'm so confused ! I don't have a nipple on my ON3 turbo so I just run the bottom wastegate nipple to a vacuum source ? Do I need a manual boost controller ?
@@georgedemelo7267 sorry for the late reply. I just seen your message. But yes that's correct. Just run it to any vacuum source. Hopefully you've already have it worked out out.
Your manifold see both vacuum n boost ... vacuum should only be taken from intake side before turbo.. your wastegate is connected to boost side, hence its opening up wastegate valve at a lower boost pressure than installed spring.
@@Duwop77 kool... its a com.on mistake we make not realizing that all boost line will at some point become vacuum but all vacuum line remains Before turbo is constant vaccum
You should T off of the idle air control valve , under the valve it self there is another vacuum line . T from that one instead so you don't mess with your fuel regulation
Thanks for the tip. My new setup doesn't utilize the vaccuum from the fuel pressure regulator. I agree with not teeing from there. Thanks for watching 😁 👍
I have the same waste gate but i never blocked off the top like yours is i just have the bottom hose connected to the compressor. Do i have to plug the top port?
Wasson dude know the videos is years old I used this for my d14 turbo civic. I’ve got a boost controller can you help with how to vacuum in the boost controller
@@georgeclements7530 No problem. Below is a link to turbo smart website. They have a great diagram to show how to install. If you need further assistance I'm willing to help. Thanks for watching 😁 👍 www.turbosmart.com/news/manual-boost-controller-installation/
@@ramonquintana5899 The link below is to the turbosmart website. They have pictured diagrams that you can look at. If you need further assistance contact me on Instagram I can send you a video or go live. www.turbosmart.com/news/manual-boost-controller-installation/
The top port doesn't matter unless your using a boost controller. But don't plug it, leave it open.. The lower needs to be connected to a vaccuum source and tightened or it'll be a leak.
Its a typical ebay wastegate. It gets the job done without having to spend alot of money. But have your tuner set a boost cut in case the wastegate does fail. Thanks for watching 😁 👍
Can I T the Vacuum from the turbo and put one end to a Boost gauge? Btw thanks for getting it to the point without doing burnout or going to get ice cream like other RU-vidrs. 😄
I'm lost. Lol. Where is the T on your motor? You dont need a T on the turbo. I just have one hose coming off of the turbo vacuum port directly to the wastegate. And my boost gauge is running to a vacuum port on my intake manifold. Hit me up on Instagram I can send you pics or a video. @duwop77
Hey bro so ive had this same waste gate for a minute and i noticed it never lets off when i reach 5 psi or 10 or 15 lmaoo i was using the 5 psi spring the bottom port off the wastegate just like you but it dose not seem to even effect the plunger but when i use the top line i get madd wastegate chatter should i go for a stiffer spring and keep running the top nipple or is my shit just fucked lol thanks man much apreciated 🤙
Sounds like its defective. The bottom port should work fine. But anytime a wastegate isn't opening something is up. It may have a vacuum leak preventing it from opening. Thanks for watching 😁👍
My car uses a map sensor, I have a T to the fuel regulator to the map sensor and to the intake, I need to have my computer reprogrammed” maybe I will disable it, My car used to be supercharged, but the supercharger runs out of steam once I hit 10 pounds of boosts. The 3800 sc is in a fiero, the turbo powered fieros runs faster 1/4 mile times, then the supercharged fieros.
i have same rev 9 wastegate im not running a bov i have two fittings for bottom ports and only running off wastegate rn do i need to just run one line from intake manifold to bottom port and then block off other side port and top ports or do i need to vent the other side port thats not being used to atmosphere ?
I had no issues with mine. Its cast iron a really strong metal. At that time I purposely looked for a kit with a cast iron manifold to avoid cracking issues.
It's ether Neptune or chrome. It was tuned at a shop. Also my boost is limited by the spring pressure inside the wastegate. I think at the time of this video I was using a 5 pound spring. Thanks for watching 😁👍
If I’m not running a boost controller can i have a vacuum block in my brake booster running on the lines to my wastegate? Since brake booster is manifold vacuum?
When you say vacuum block. Are you referring to the vacuum blocks with the individual ports that borrow vacuum from the brake booster? If so yes, you can do it that way.
Hey homie so question for you... So you use the vacuum line on your blow off valve from the brake booster did you just leave the brake booster disconnected from vacuum after you ran it cuz that's what you're saying is you don't have it ran in with that T do you just have the one going to the bluff out and then the other going to your boost gauge... So like that mean you running no vacuum to the brake booster now?
Matty B. My brake booster is normally plugged into the big vacuum port on top. The reason it's not plugged up in the video just for visual purposes. It was blocking the view so I unplugged it. The blow off valve and boost gauge is plugged to the small vacuum port on the back of the intake with the T fitting.
@@Duwop77 so if a break booster works on vacuum how does it work under boost? Would a one way check valve be in order? I couldnt imagine a break booster lasting long under any boost. Of course your foot isnt on the break while on the gas boosting (unless doing a break stand of course) but Im sure the break pedal will be boosted making it hard to hold.
@@triggerwarning2439 If I remember correctly there is already a one way check valve in the vacuum line for the brake booster. It comes like that from the factory. You dont have to worry about your brakes not working do to turbo boost. The only thing that's affected under boost is a untunned map sensor. Thanks for watching. Have anymore questions hit me up😁👍
@@Duwop77 thanks for the reply and good to know... still trying to figure out if im going to use this turbo or mate up a m90 supercharger to my project. Or do both but with a m62 so it can be shut off as soon as the turbo takes over... seen it done on a Subaru some time ago.
@@triggerwarning2439 no problem. Sometimes figuring out what direction you wanna go is the tricky part of a build. Both are great options. Good luck. Wish you the best.
