| Turbo Response And Overboost Eliminator Kit |
| (NOTE: This page contains my personal setup of boost control, and other various modifications to the turbocharger control systemof vacuum lines under the hood. I did not pioneer ANY of these ideas, and i only use this as a platform to more accurately describe the parts and supplies needed to do this to an *88 SHELBY Z.* I do not recommend this to anyone without a full idea of how your turbocharger works, and take no responsibility to those who do this setup incorrectly or at all, and ruin their engine, or turbocharger, or any other part of their vehicle. I have confidence that the setup willbe the same for many of these "K-derivitive" vehicles, so i am just putting this here to be safe! |
| PARTS YOU WILL *Probably* NEED |
| 1 - NAPA # 701-1577 or equivalent "switch - low pressure" (low pressure adjustable switch) - $37.81 - You will need to remove the rubber cap from the adjustment Allenscrew, as the valve is factory set at 15psi. Unless you have a reporgrammed computer for ~15psi+ cutout, mine cuts at 14psi. from the factory. The valve is supposedly adjustable from its factory 15psi, to a low of 14*MINE*, or a high of 20 something. 1 - Electrical vacuum solenoid - *free* (mine were from the pass. fender well. I also used the electrical connector it was connected to the main harness with. I separated the two solenoids with a Dremel Tool, as i only needed one for now.) 1 - Pneumatic restrictor - *free* (i took mine right from the end of my wastegate line, it was yellow plastic underneath a black vinyl boot) 3 - Rolls of different colored wire - $3.69 per roll from a local supply store - (i used one black, one red, and one blue for the different electrical connections i would need throughout the process) 4 ft - 3/16" rubber vacuum line 2 ft. - 5/16" rubber vacuum/fuel line 2 - 3/16"(or 1/8") to 5/16" universal vinyl/plastic connector - $1.79 from local Advance Auto Parts - These will be used to connect the various vacuum "Appliances" that your vehicle will be using to the two available manifold vac-pressure sources/nipples. 1 - plastic/vinyl 3/16" "F" connector - $1.79 Local Advance Auto Parts - used mine to connect the smallest end of one of my universal connectors (Above) to this connectors center outlet to separate some vacuum for the fuel pressure regulator, and map sensor. 2 - 3/16"x1/4"x3/16" vinyl "T"s - $1.79 from local Advance Auto Parts - One of these went into the MAP sensor line, and the open barb connected my vacuum line coming from the pass. firewall. The other i used to connect my pressure switch(1/4" barb), universal vinyl connector(first 3/16" barb), and solenoid on-barb(second 3/16" barb) (**the 1/4" barbs should connect to most 3/16" vac line, little tight, but should work) 1 set - 5/16" fuel line capable fuel injection line clamps, or equivalent sized wormgear clamps - #2.79 from local Advance Auto Parts 1 ft. - 3/8" (?) vac/fuel line - *free* - Mine from the original vacuum nipples from the manifold was good yet, so i reused it. These pieces will be used to connect the various vac-pressure "appliances" that your vehicle will use (ie MAP sensor, heater control, pressure switch, Wastegate control solenoid, more??) |
