MANUAL BOOST CONTROLLER w/DUAL PORT WASTEGATE
Installation Diagram:
To give you a visual of the hose connections for a Manual Boost Controller with Lindsey Racing Dual Port Wastegate set-up. The hoses in this diagram are "short" only to demonstrate the connections. The "enlargement" gives a clear picture of the arrow on the controller. The arrow ensures correct
direction of air flow.
The pressurized air to the controller and wastegate are supplied by the
banjo fitting on the hard pipe between the turbo and intercooler. This
is the ideal location because it supplies the highest pressure available
in the system since it's before restrictions where pressure drop comes into play
like with the intercooler and throttle body.
When installing our MBC on a Dual Port Wastegate, we no longer use the
factory boost controller known as the cycling valve / control valve. You can
leave this under the intake manifold if you like but we do not
run any hoses to it for our new wastegate and controller.
There is one hose that runs from the cycling valve to the "J" boot just in front of the turbocharger inlet. We want to
plug or cap off this hose. Whether you leave the cycling valve plugged in or un-plugged is not important.
When adjusting the controller on this set-up, you adjust the knob "clockwise" to raise
the boost level, and "counter-clockwise" to lower it.
The wastegate in this picture is a Lindsey Racing Dual Port Wastegate. If this was a TIAL brand wastegate, the lines at the wastegate would be reversed.
Side is now top, and top is now side. This is done
because the valve travels in the opposite direction.
MANUAL BOOST CONTROLLER w/SINGLE PORT WASTEGATE 
Installation Diagram:
To give you a visual of hose connections for Manual Boost Controller with Single Port Wastegate. The hoses in this diagram are "short" only to demonstrate the connections. The "enlargement" gives a clear picture of the arrow on the controller. The arrow ensures correct
direction of air flow.
Whether the Factory wastegate, or Clubgate or our Dual Port used as a Single Port, you would only have one hose running to the top center of the wastegate.
The pressurized air to the controller and wastegate are supplied by the
banjo fitting on the hard pipe between the turbo and intercooler. This
is the ideal location because it supplies the highest pressure available
in the system since it's before restrictions where pressure drop comes into play
like with the intercooler and throttle body.
