  • help plz. whats the name of this part in the picture???

    hi guys, i got a quick question
    in this picture i circled the part that i need to know what it is and the arrow that i made is the hose that i'm missing on my car.
    just wondering why there is no hose on mine.
    if anyone could help that would be great.
    thanks

    Boost solenoid. It keeps your boost at .8 bar (I think) or 1.0 bar with the restrictor removed. Mine were removed from the solenoid And plugged when my car arrived. I plugged them back in. Until I unplugged the whole car numerous times.
    Dang! You got shocks, pegs... Lucky! You ever take it off any sweet jumps?

      But holy Jesus. With an engine bay like that you'd think there would be an aftermarket boost controller. Are you sure that thing is connected to anything at all?

            Only a boost controller can control boost.

              if only 1 hose is plugged into the selenoid, and the selenoid's connector isn't plugged in, find that other hose(coming from under the intake manifold) and connect both hoses together directly

              if the selenoid connector is plugged in, then again find that 2nd hose and plug it back into the selenoid

              usually, both hoses that go to the selenoid are zip-tied together from the block to the selenoid

                i just went and checked. there is only 1 hose that i found under the intake manifold. there is another hose that goes to the BOV part. i cant find the hose that's missing.

                  I was told that's not being used anymore. the boost solenoid is just for the stock turbos. Now i have single turbo and external wastegate. Is that true?
