Reconnect as per original. All these things do is bleed of air thus tricking the car into running a higher boost. What they don't do is alter the fuelling. This results in the ECU seeing it is only running (for arguments sake) 0.7 bar boost when the engine is actually getting 1 bar boost resulting in the engine running lean. Thus the big bang debate starts, WHEN WILL MY ENGINE BLOW.

i'm still a bit confused,how can you connect it to the actuator as per original when the the original runs from the inlet side of the turbo up to a small T piece then to the actuator?

cheers
