IMPORTANT NOTES ON YOUR BOOST CONTROLLER
•

Use only silicone hose that is the correct size and pressure rating for your application when fitting your boost controller – other
hoses will be effected by heat and will eventually crack or split which could cause excessive boost pressure and engine damage

•

Ensure that all plumbing is secured with clamps

•

Your boost controller should be mounted at least 100mm from any heat source

•

A Turbosmart Fuel Cut Defender may need to be used in conjunction with your boost controller – refer to www.turbosmart.com.au

•

The boost dial has a left handed thread, be sure not to over tighten as this will damage the boost controller


RECOMMENDATIONS
•

Turbosmart recommends that the Air Fuel ratio is checked once boost pressure is set

•

Turbosmart recommends that boost pressure is set using a Dynamometer and not on the street

•

Turbosmart recommends that a accurate boost gauge be permanently fitted to the vehicle

•

Turbosmart recommends that your boost controller is fitted and adjusted by an appropriately qualified technician

HOW TO INSTALL YOUR BOOST CONTROLLER

TOOLS REQUIRED

General mechanic tools

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

•

The Blue wire is positive and the Brown wire is negative

•

Extend and connect the Blue wire through the switch to a fused 12 volt ignition supply – Important, failure to connect to an ignition
supply may cause the battery to go flat and may result in damage to the product

•

Check that the power source can accept an additional 1amp load

•

Connect the brown wire, with crimp supplied, to a solid ground point on the chassis

1) INTERNAL WASTEGATE SETUP

•

Allow the engine to cool down before installing your boost controller

•

Locate the pressure source port and the wastegate actuator port on the turbocharger assembly (refer drawing 1)

•

Remove the factory boost control solenoid if fitted from the boost pressure supply port while leaving the solenoid connected to the
ECU

•

Install the SSBC Tee piece in the wastegate pressure line with the wastegate arrow pointing towards the wastegate actuator

•

If your wastegate actuator has additional ports, these will need to be blocked

•

Secure all silicone hose ends with hose clamps

•

Mount your boost controller bracket onto the vehicle, and then attach the boost controller onto the bracket with the supplied screws

•

Make sure the boost dial is turned completely anti-clockwise before making adjustments.
