Boost Lost By Changing Pills
HELP!!!
I've decided to change my actuator pills (wastegate
controller) and actuator (turbo precontrol) plus the
actuator (charge control) to high silicon hoses and
notice a pattern of 6-5-6lbs. Now I'm loss. I've checked
the connection over and everything looked fine. Was I
not suppose to change the pills to silicon hoses or what?

what do you mean plastic pills.?
sorry but all I did was change them stock hoses to silicon hoses. I do notice some little oil on the stock hoses before I change it to the silicon hoses.

This happened to me once right before a dyno pull. I had changed one of the hoses that contained the pill and I had only pulled 7psi max. Scared the hell outta me, went back home and good thing I save everything that I change and the pill was still in the old hose. Changed it and it pulled like a dream after that.

WOW THANKS ALOT!!
I FOUND THE PILLS IN THE HOSES!
Whew I was scare like hell, but the problem is do I just cut these open and put it in the silicon hoses and replace it.?
The other thing is how do I know which pill goes to which now?
Thanks alot guys!

The waste gate controller and the turbo precontrol actuators vac hoses.
You will have to look for those hoses because those gaddamn pills does make that of a difference.!
Look inside every of your vac hoses and see if you can
see a small metal pill in it. The pill have to be in one of
those hoses.!
The bigger pill goes to the waste gate controller, and
the smaller pill goes to the precontrol hose.
I just finished mine and I think I have awaken the long
sleeping beast.
When I get a picture I will post it for you guys.
