homemade boost controler? how to?

Re:homemade boost controler? how to?
that would work too...
ALthough i know for a face the way i said it will work..
You think the air wont make a rigt turn? Air will find the fastest way out. And if that valve is closer than the wastegate it will leak air...
This is the setup i have run on my srt4 and not only did it work, But the turbo spooled up noticably faster too..

You get them from home depot... They go full open or full close or anywhere in between.. By barely opening it you get a small raise in boost.. Fully closed is stock boost..
The more you open it the more boost you get...
So don't me... Im not dumb

if you put an adjustable valve inline you restrict the folw in both directions so when you lift off the throttle and then floor it again your wg will be open and you will boost slow as ----.
if you want to use the T piece then you should cut the pipe from the snail to the wg, and then insert the T and put the pipe to the wg adjacent to the pressure line from the turbo and then put the valve on the unused part of the fitting

And how is this unreliable? I dont see how so?

You wont have a vaccum leak because the input boost source is from the compressor and not from the manifold. The Bleed type valve does work, thats what Vortec uses on the mustang kits. Since the waste gate boost source is self contained and isolated it will not cause a vaccum leak. It will just bleed off a certain cfm from the waste gate acuator so it will take 10psi to open a 7 psi gate. I use a ball and spring type like in the link. The bleed type tends to spike less from what I used. I had one but it didn't have a big enough bleed hole to relieve boost through so it only upped my boost 2 psi, insted of the 4 I needed it to.
