so the connection that feeds to the top of the diaphragm connects to the compressor housing and the one that feeds to the underside of the diaphragm connects to the bleed valve/boost controler?



NO NO NO NO NO!! You definately do not want to hook the fitting on top of the diaphragm directly to a boost source, this will ensure that the wastegate valve cannot lift off its seat (cause effectively you are pushing it into the seat, not lifting it off!), so that you will get as much boost as the turbo can produce!! Shocked Shocked Shocked

To get the preset wastegate pressure (determined by the spring rate), you would connect only 1 boost reference line to the fitting BELOW the diaphragm.

There are two options for boost control if you want more boost:

1.) bleed off a certain amount of air from this reference source below the diaphragm

2.) use some form of restriction to feed a small percentage of the boost pressure into the fitting on TOP of the diaphragm (in addition to full boost pressure below the diaphragm), effectively reducing the pressure underneath to increase the pressure at which the valve will lift off the seat.

Someone please correct me if they have found otherwise with their EXTERNAL wastegates.

Cheers
Phil
