Do a search, this has been asked 2.3 million times. You will get alot of useful info if you search on it, good luck with it.

there is tons o threads about it search. But basically different power curve. Seq= quicker spool up, not as much up high- good for autoX. NON SEQ= little more lag, better for drag racing, and you can get rid of the millions of vacum hoses. Personally I am wating till I go single, I'll stay with seq for now.

Can the stock computer handle the non-sequential conversion?

How about Farrell's PMC?

I thinking about trying this out, as I have a Turbo Control issue (boost side appears to be leaking) and this is easier than pulling the manifold right now...

If your SEQ set-up is working perfectly, 10-8-10 or better & with no spikes, I would recommend staying with SEQ turbos. I love having max boost by 3k rpm in the city.

But, if your SEQ is giving you tons problems and frustrations like I had...Definitely try going non-sequential. It's great to have my long lost friend(BOOST) back in my life....(j/k) Just a little more lag but boost always comes on and is very smooth and predictable.

Thanks to ...Rikki for getting the ball rolling with posting the how-to...

Cool. I have a choice. Pull the Extension Manifold (again) or go non-seq (easier). Hmmm...

I have to admit, I do like the way sequential performs, but it is a PITA at times.

DO YOU KNOW HOW TO TURN ON AN INDIVIDUAL SOLENOID? I need to turn on my Turbo Control solenoid (pressure side) so I can hand pump the Pressure Tank and see if it leaks between the Pressure Tank and the TCA. I can only test leaks to the solenoid right now, as it is closed.

I think my transistion problem right now is a bad hose on the actuator side of the solenoid.
