Quick everyone tell her to search then we can all laugh!

Ok in all honesty, it depends on what motor you have. If it is twin turbo you will need to run two lines and then put a T in. May want to give a little more detail on your setup prior.

Also, enjoy getting bashed for asking questions...it seems like commonplace these days unfortunately.

Umm....yeah that didn't break it down at all.... what I am sure you meant to say (and just chose not to I'm sure)was they need to hook it up to a boost source and the front actuator if they are twinned.

Not at all.

1. There are usually directions, can they not read?
2. If they do actually own a turboed car and don't know how to install it, then they don't understand the purpose of even buying it in the first place other than, "more boost=more power" =recipe for disaster.
3. You know how much research this individual did upon "buying" this boost controller? IMHO, zilch. Why not start off a thread like, "Questions about buying a boost controller" Then ask about the why's. Not like they even needed to, there are about 184,789+ articles about boost controllers, purpose, basics, and installs. Instead they "claim" they bought a boost controller and now are stuck cuz they dont understand the basics of turbocharged applications which is perfectly ok as long as they know they need to figure out what stuff is and how it works before blowing money and screwing up their car. Good enough?
