It connects to the intake pipe I believe.

 

Got a question about the BOV. I have the Synapse Synchronic BOV http://www.synapseengineering.com/ and it has 3 vaccum line connections. 2 are for the intake manifold and 1 is for a boost only source (compressor signal or intercooler pipe). Where would I hook that up to? Can I "T" into the line that goes from the charge pipe to the actuator?

 

There is a Synapse rep on here somewhere, do a search for the vendor ads.

 

 

I wish I was in AL right now... This snow sucks, I am so envious. lol

 

Is the actuator the same thing as the internal wastegate?

 

It is related. The actuator is the shiny thing that hangs off the turbo that has a connecting rod that goes to the internal wastegate. It has a barb on it for a vaccum hose. It moves the connecting rod, which in turn opens the waste gate flapper.



It is the shiny lil canister looking thing on top.

 

cool! internal wastegate!

i was wondering where those cool noises were coming from.

 

BTW, I get people asking me what size turbo it is all the time...

T3, T4 etc etc...

WTF is this thing?

 

It is a form of the 18G turbo, not a T3/T4. Greddy uses the Mitsubishi style turbos not the Garett
