Ok, i just installed my evo3 16g and now i have one question for everyone.
There were two vacuum lines comming off of the old t25 and i heard that i should just plug those lines and be fine. At this current moment i do not have any kind of vacuum lines hooked up to the new wastegate.

I was wondering if i can run the car like this or i should just get a boost controller and have it hooked up, i kno i should have gotten one sooner but since the t25 was blown i just bought the evo turbo. Or any other suggestions???

:dsm:
 
one line is for the vacuum to the intake manifold... the other line is to the stock boost solenoid. you can disconnect the stock boost solenoid and either just run the vacuum line to the turbo, which will let the turbo run whatever boost the wastegate spring can handle. or you can hook up a boost controler and set whatever boost you want with that.

i think the most boost the stock boost solenoid will handle is around 12-14psi.. it seems like some cars are different. mine was around 14psi and some of my friends cars seem to run only 12psi with the stock solenoid.

hope that helps you.
