Angry poor mans non-seq boost prob....

i have searched all the pages that i can search and there is nothing that is answering my qusetion.

i dont have any NOT even 1 to 2 psi befor 4,500 and once i get there i will bearly build any boost to 1/2 a bar by 7,500.

i have the percontorler wired open to the front bumper.... and i have tryed wireing it to the back bumper still no diff.

its like my 1st turbo isn't even boosting at all....

i have dont it how the directions told my here http://www.rx7turboturbo.com/robrobi...%20Turbo%20Mod

they were really crappy direction......... anyone have a better wireup?

or an answer to why im not getting any boost...???

Make sure you wire them BOTH, I made the same mistake and was boosting around 3 psi MAX, then fixed it and spiked 12 so I had to fix it.

You don't have to wire the pre-control....just disable it. I just capped the lines at the solenoid next to the Y-Pipe.

Yeah I know.....Your original thread is what helped me do mine.
But, I boost fine with the lines capped....but I didn't get past 5 w/out them capped. But what on this car isn't car specific, right? It's like they were god damn hand built!

Are you using the stock pills? or you have a boost controller?
