Someone has disconnected the apexi boost valve on my scooby heres some pics just wondering which pipe goes where?









Anyone know what the crack as I'm clueless?

I think the guy I bought it off said this was set at 1.2 bar

Gonna be interesting

Trial and error mate if you put em on the wrong way it will just run actuator pressure so lower

how do you mean back to standard, just looped turbo/actuator?

the apexi ecu cant control the standad boost solenoid.

Yeah they said it was boosting too high but when I connected it today it didn't go over 1 bar.

you got plans of taking it to get it all setup properly? be the best way forward I think.

I might mate I was talking to guy but he wants 500 quid which I thought was steep and I'm not sure if I'd trust him either

Todd mapped my old Evo 5 did a real good job, but he only maps oem Mitsubishi ecus I think :( I don't think I'd trust anyone else around here
