JWT 700bb kit and Haltech Boost Control
Hello all, how do I install a single Haltech manual boost controller in my JWT 700bb kit? Thanks

As you would any other internally waste gated turbo. Nothing special.
|
Read the instructions that came with it. It is literally 2 wires and 2 vacuum hoses.
|
So I would just tee off the output side of the solenoid and run it to both wastegates? Makes sense.. Thanks

Are you sure you want to do that? I assume that you may want to turn the boost up. Do you know exactly what tune is currently in the car and the current A/F level at WOT?
I only ask because the adjustable boost controller has likely destroyed more FI engines than any other cause. If the motor has survived up to now it must be in the range of acceptable fueling and internal parts. If you just turn up the boost without a reasonable expectation of what it can tolerate you are rolling the dice. Do you feel lucky? |
Hey Gary, great questions. The car is currently tuned on Osiris at 12 lbs of boost using a different external boost controller as he did not have a haltech. I've moved over the entire engine and turbo setup into my vehicle. Once everything is installed, Hal from dynosty will be doing a remote tune to get the car run and a good base map, then once the 1000 miles are completed for the clutch breakin, he will be dyno tuning everything and will be tuning up to 15 lbs, but I will only be running around 12 once again. The engine is fully built. I won't be changing anything until it's tuned and setup properly.

Sounds like a good plan to me.
