EBC plumbing

Quick question, Heres a pic of the plumbing instructions that came with the manual.


Which seems to be similar to installing an MBC which I have at the moment


Showing that on one side, where the pressure line from the waste gate to throttle body was originally, should be blocked off.
But looking at the install guides in the tech section, it appears that both sides are still used, using a T connection, then teed to the EBC solenoid. Rather than blocking off one side, and using the other to connect to the EBC.


I hope that made sense, anyone here installed one yourself? How did you do it?

I used to have mine hooked up with one side blocked but since I have made a tapping point into the balance pipe.

It really does not matter if you use one side or both. The back pressure from the manifold will still give a very similar effect one either side. I would go with the way the diagrams you have linked are shown.

 

nothing should be blocked off. what you said here makes sense.

 

Thanks guys

thats what I thought, that it probably doesn't matter which way you do it. But the Americans seem to use both (as in the tech files from TT.net) so I'll probably do it that way. We'll see what happens
