Banjo Fitting for WG

[beefey]

For those of you with a dual port wastegate, I was wondering how you pulled a pressure off the banjo bolt. Right now it has a hydralic type hose on it with crimped fitting. Did you try to source out a new banjo fitting with barbs? Any help or direction on this matter would be appreciated. On LR's site they just say "connect this sucker from the banjo bolt" but offer nothing more than that.

Thanks guys!

i'm not sure if people understand your question. are you asking where to tie in to the banjo bolt line? have you seen this?

Use the old nipple fitting from the top of the old wastegate for the hard pipe connection. It is the same thread / size. Use that to replace the banjo bolt.

Nize,

From what you posted it says:

Connect the boost pressures line (from the banjo bolt) to the top port on the wastegate. (YELLOW)

Connect the control line from the regulator to the side port on the wastegate. (BLUE)

Yellow step is no factor but as far as the MBC is concerned do you T- the line next to the WG? Doesn't the original hard line just go the CV?

Thanks,
Scott

the original banjo bolt/hard line goes to the CV, and the CV then connects to the top of the stock WG to control boost. you are essentially replacing the CV with your MBC.

with the MBC in dualport setup, there should be constant pressure on the top of lindsey's clubgate to always force it open under boost, and your MBC will divert part of the pressure to the side of the wastegate to force it closed (and control boost).

here's another diagram using an EBC to better demonstrate;

by the way, you haven't clarified if you have a lindsey dual port wastegate, or a tial dual port wastegate. they are completely opposite in where you make the pressure line connection.

It is Tial but arent the lines just swapped (at least that's what it says on LR's website)...

yep, here's the tial;
