I would just get a good one spend 50-80 bucks and be done with it some of the cheap ones work well some don't i have bought 2 cheap ones neather worked really well then i spend 50 bucks and that boost controller works good.

or get plans from someone here to make one if you want to go on the cheap.
 
I made mine for less then $10. 10 months and counting, stil holding strong. Though I am not going to do a write-up for it. Too much explaining, time, and thinking for me. Plus I'm at work. Do a search and you'll find something.

No I have an internal one that came with the turbo. So I can't really vouch for the dual WG.
 
Can you get a pic of your engine bay? I'm not sure if your set-up is like what i'm thinking.

Is the setup I have is that ok ? Well I have it like that but Some how before I had the boost controller I just to boost 6 psi. Now that i have the boost controller I am trying to boost 7 or 8 and I turned the wheel of the BC to its maximum potential and it seems to be the same has I had it before :confused: so any ideas.

Correct me if i am wrong again
 
Paul's corrected diagram, and my common sense in reading the big arrow on the MBC lead me to believe you need to reverse the two lines on the MBC itself. I believe the port with the arrow would be from the compressor, and the other one (near the knob) going to the wastegate.

But please wait for somebody to verify that.

IS THIS RIGHT OR WRONG :confused:
 
First things first...how about you look at the diagrams already given to you. It clearly looks like you have yours hooked up backwards according to what paul posted. Secondly, I would recommend not cranking the dial on the mbc like crazy just ### you wanna see if it's working. You need to read the instructions because they most definitely say to lower all the way and set accordingly, then move up from there. It's your engine though, all it takes in one time.
