Are there some members here who use this type of boost valve? It's made by Turbonetics and has a knob on top does some nice little "clicks" so you won't mess up your settings if you accidentally touch it while working under the hood. I also noticed that there is a little brass fitting with a tiny orifice in it on the back of the valve...I think (but not 100% sure) that's where the valve "bleeds" some air to control the wastegate's opening. Also the two ports to which you connect some hoses are marked "IN" and "OUT". I blowed through it and it seems that only the "OUT" port bleeds air out through the back of the valve. The "IN" port is probably intended for those who use an external wastegate and probably isn't used with a stock-type wastegate...Is that right?...:confused:
Anyways, any advice would be welcomed...
Thank you,

Claude. :wink:

Thanks "whitecobra98". I was asking these questions because there is a member who wants to but it from me and I want to give him as much info as possible.
Thanks,

So is yours hooked up with a line from the compressor to the in, and a line to the wastegate on the out port?
