okay, im to the point of where im *almost* ready to re-assemble. Got all the solenoid leads plugged 2gether w/ resistors. Got all the old vac. lines taken out. Got a few questions though...where is that door where you have to wire it open? and how do u get to it without taking off the turbos? Also, i have the HD boost cont....so do i need to keep the wastegate control solenoid plugged in to keep from throwing engine codes or can i just forget about it?

plmk,
Zach

ps-any pictures of the wired open door would be outstanding

also, the thing that bolts up to the inside the LIM....can i just throw that out or does it have to do something w/ emissions?

Ok, I assume "that door" is the TCA door? The TCA is loacted under the car, right next to the oil pan. It looks kinda like a coffee can with a rod sticking out one end bolted to the "door" The can has 2 hoses attached to it.


Crawl under the pass. side of the car, from the front. Look at the oil pan, and look in its general vacinity for something that looks like the pic below.

In this pic it's called Actuator (Turbo Control) on the bottom of the pic.

yea the pic doesnt work

but yea its that door you HAVE to hold open so the 2ndary can provide boost

911GT2

Yes, that door.

teamstealth

okay, so on that picture, i wire open that thing on the exhaust manifold...not the deal by the primary turbo, right?

911GT2

Yes, the thing by the exhaust manifold. The TCA has that rod sticking out of it. The rod is what opens and closes the door. The lever that the rod on the TCA pushed and pulls is what you wire open.

So, find TCA. Follow Rod. There's the door. The door looks like a miniature version of a crank handle for a window on a car. I wish i had a pic of it, but i don't.

okay, now what about the turbo control solenoid? do i need to just keep that plugged in and cap the lines where it used to be so i dont throw codes or can i just leave it out?

teamstealth

and there is a little thing on the inside of the LIM..its got a couple of air hoses, and its RIGHT above the oil metering pumps....do i need that for anything or is it just complete **** that i can throw out?

911GT2

This is what i did, but there is debate about this issue. CAP LEFT SOLENOID!! Take out the two hoses from the left solenoid (left is just to differentiate b/t turbo precontrol and wastegate control) and cap them both. But do not switch the electrical connectors. Leave both electrical harnesses in their original location. Solenoi capping seen here

and here

teamstealth

well its not a matter of capping the lines...im wondering if you need to leave the electrical part attached so ur ECU doesnt freak out on ya?

911GT2

More desciption please! Can you see it in this pic?

Does it have a name?

911GT2

Yes, leave the electrical harnesses attached. They aren't yet attached in those pics for clarity of the hose capping. But yes, leave the electrical connectors attached.

the thing in this picture right below his hand

911GT2

This?

911GT2

sorry if thats not right below the OMP, i have no idea where those are/what they look like.

teamstealth

no no..that ENTIRE assembly. a friend has a block off plate where his used to be...im keeping my emissions stuff, so do i need that?

911GT2

Oh, that whole thing? Wow, I have no idea. I don't even know what that is. Good luck!

teamstealth

haha yea we dont either..its got a line that goes to the stock intake box, then it wraps into that whole damn assembly...from there, who knows

911GT2

So thats what this hose goes to then right?

teamstealth

yea correct

teamstealth

btw...how do i tie back that actuator rod w/o removing the turbos...i have big hands
