    Yes it has two wastegate actuators. Just use a T piece to join them both and connect to the boost controller.

    so use t-piece to join line coming from the boost controller to both wastegate actuators?

    Yes.

    You can T the boost reference from the turbos, or use one and block the other.

    And T the wastegate actuator lines into the output from the boost controller.



    Cheers

    I drive past his car every day... Maybe I should put a note on his windscreen "Have you run that 12 yet? Love Toymods"

    Dude please post pics of your setup during installation and once installed as I will be doing this very shortly and don't want to fuck it up.

    What sort of boost controller did you get? I hope it's not a bleed valve? I'm going to try out one of the turbotech ball bearing valve controllers off ebay as they seem to be all the rage at the moment and for less than $40 you can't go wrong!

    Care to elaborate boys? I've read that they can be very sensitive to adjust? Did you find that it brought boost on faster?

    Yes very sensitive to adjust, & yes boost does come on quicker. It seems though that best results are achieved with bigger adjustments, ie. trying to get only a couple of psi increase is very hard to do, whereas a good 5-6psi is much easier. FCD for great success.

    Bah, not my fault you only wanted to increase boost by a gnats dick!

    While tuning my Jaycar DFA on the dyno boost suddenly started wavering up & down a few pounds, & this was fixed by stretching the spring in the boost controller. Prolly not necessary if you're too scared that too much boost will cause you to lose control of bowel function.
