Boost Controller


Where do I hook up the manual boost controller? Do I just take off the Boost Control SOlenoid and put it there or what? Do I hafta take the two vacuum ports on the inlet and plug them and run in from IC to the boost controller or how would I do this?

I'm only making 4.5 psi right now in an auto and want to up it to 10-12psi.

if I recall correctly the 2.3T autos can only support up to 10 psi due to the transmission, i'm not entirely 100% sure. Just wait for one of the other turbo heads around here to show up they inform you.

so the stock tranny can't handle the power or tq or something from the extra boost? Think I figured out where I need to put it and its boostin like 8-9 right now. Big difference compared to the fast 4.5 psi I had before.

yes stock engine and its an 88TC so I know I'm in the wrong section but know its the same engine as the SVO so was hoping I could get some help here. Just don't wanna overboost the tranny or engine.
