Why do you think it is that what is at fault? Did you take the pipes off or something?

i think i may of got a few mixed up as i was working on car and the kids pulled a few off and then i got into a pickle and its all gone **** up tbh !!!

 

Word of advice.

If not sure how your BCS is currently plumbed in, it really is't the smartest thing to go hooning your car around, as you have no idea what could be happening boost-wise. It only takes for a BCS vac pipe upstream of the turbo to be constantly venting, for example, which could lead to the car to be overboosting.

Admittedly, that's prob not the case, seeing as you got 'owned' by an (apparently stock?) Corsa.


Sorry for sounding like 'Dad', but I'm just looking out for your engine and ultimately your pride and joy.

 

hence the need for help but no one seems to have any pics of there engine bay with where all the pipes go !!!

 

Do you know where your turbo's wastegate actuator plus compressor cover are, in the engine bay?

(I did post descriptions on the other thread).

 

im quite dumb on the turbo side tbh !!! all looks too many pipes to me !!!

 

After market BCSs usually have their ports labelled:-

"NO" = normally open
This connection goes to the compressor cover's outlet nipple.

"COM" = common
This connection goes to the wastegate actuator.

"NC" = normally closed
This connection is left VTA... Or back to the air intake, upstream of the turbo i.e. the filter side, not the IC side.
(If left VTA, make sure the appropriate unused vac return port on the air intake is bunged off.)


Does this help?...



You'd never believe that graphic design is a large feature of my job, eh?!

 

cushty fella nice 1 can u do 1 of the pipes to the engine too for me lol those graphics are frickin awesome !!!!

 

lol

Seriously, when done, post up close-up pics of what you've done and we'll tell you if it's okay, etc.

 

Nice one joz , heres one i prepaired earlier ,



Ignore the restrictor pill in the bottom hose as this goes backto your intake tube or can be left to vent to atmosphere,like a dump valve lol

 

still in need of where pipes go on the engine theres fookin loads lol

 

Your best bet is to take it to the nearest well known and resepcted independent Subaru specialist/tuner for a look over and rectify session, TBH...

Trailor it lots of companies will pick you up on a transporter and drop you off. That's what I did when I got my G'box done

Take some detailed pics of the pipes in question and you'll stand a better chance of getting it right

 

Your car shoudn't have a 3 port fella, should be a 2 port....thats probably what your problem is.

 

always been on there the 3 port
