Ive just been getting busy with a zed in a scrap yard and noticed that the wastegate solonoid bolted to the side of the engine had a breather/hose cut and had been blanked off,

just wanted to know why it was done, does it allow you to run more boost?

It probably had a boost controller fitted to up the boost.

has it still got the boost controller, I am after one if your scapping one

sorry it didnt have the boost controller, im after one myself and a rough idea on how to fit one if anybody can help,

do you have a picture of this pipe unplugged? i haev a feeling it is the same for me.

 

there is a bit of piping down the sides of the engine that were on a t juntion connector.. it has been looped around and does nothing and not connected to anything.

 

Santa believes it used to have a boost controller. If this is what the boost controller used before what would the symptoms of this be?

 

Could this be related to the engine missing i am getting under high boost? Maybe the wastegate is not functioning preperly without it and so i get engine problems under full load

OMG that was VERY helpful... just what i needed... except now i am trying to figure out if thsi causes the problem.. one of the pipes goes from the top left section of the T and the other pipe from the right side of the T goes back round into the bottom section of the T.

 

i am not boosting unlimited boost however this clearly must be a cause of some problems if it is not wired in properly. basically that T section is not wired up to anything but itself..... ohhh errrr misses

glad it helps bud :D
