anyone with a MSP ever hook up a manual boost controller in the cabin of your car? i think i grabbed the wrong line to tap into for the boost controller to work, if anyone has ever hooked up one, can they lead me in the right direction of how this works, or set up.. thanks alot-
 
You just need to T the boost source from the wga to it's boost source. The only thing is that if you mount it inside the cabin your going to have a very long line for the source which will cause spiking.
 
www.turboxs.com will have a diagram to follow.

Forget about cabin mounting. Like orng1 said that will cause unnecessary problems. You can mount the controllor on the brass colored bracket near cylinder #4. Just remove the bolt and the wire and attach the controller' mounting bracket after bending for fitment and reattach the wire and tighten the bolt.

Here's a few pics so you can see what I mean. Its a piece of cake. Don't over adjust the controller. 2-3 turns should be enough for baseline testing.

thanks a lot man that helps me out alot ... im just not sure if i tapped into the wrong lines.. cause when i hooked mine up i didnt get any response
 
I have always placed mine close to the actuator. Keeps the line short and you can get it wrong.
 
You should have one line going from the wastegate up to the blue nipple. Your other line attaches to the silver nipple. I attached mine to the factory line that runs from the BPV to the top of intake manifold runner #3, using the oem T connector.

Make sure the controller is not backwards. There is an arrow stamped in to the base that should be point towards the front of the car. Its backwards if its point towards the fire wall and will not work properly.
 
kk im going to try it today ill let yu guys know how it turned outt thanks alot for your help DAWIV...
