That black box looks like a Manual Boost Controller. If so, it should hook up to the turbo vac outlet on one end and the wastegate can on the other. Any indication on it as to which is which?

Also, http://www.boostvalve.com/motorsport.html seem to sell a similar one


Might be worth firing them a photo via email and see.

the solenoid needs to be inline with the boost signal to the actuator.. its a valve that fools the actuator into thinking theres less boost so it opens at a higher boost? thought it needed to be directly from the turbo outlet??

like this

you can put the controller inline with the black hose then
bend the rules............rule the bends

Is that a BOV in the 3rd picture ?

In the last picture, why do you have a fuel line connected up to the intake manifold ?

That port is suppose to be connected directly to the Cam cover next to it via a PCV Valve http://www.mx5parts.co.uk/valve-mazda-mk1225-p-783.html

EBC setup...

Best leave your EBC where it is as it's already wired up and just run longer lines to the turbos wastegate and actuator, less heat where it is located right now.
