New k04 problems

I can move it with my finger. Not saying it is actually working. And I guess I can say it's not being that indont hear is blowing off. If it does its not much. Lol

just because it moves doesn't mead that it is plumbed correctly

True. Only thing there is I didn't change any of that. I guess I'll do a leak test. If I don't find anything there, I'll get a new bov. And if that's not it I guess this new turbos wastegate isn't capable of handling more that 12psi. Lol
 
If the ebcs is working correctly the wastegate wouldn't be that big of a hurdle

If you still have the old turbo you could switch the wastegates

Not.much room to do all that with it on the car. Lol its a new ebcs I'll check that too.

I did a leak test. It dosnt hold air but I can't find where any is leaking. through the throttle body I guess. The ebcs I got isn't the same part number is a Dorman 667-104. Maybe it's not the same?

Ebcs does click when given 12v and part numbers seem to cross match

Ok so another possibility dealt with. Oem wastegate is now on the new turbo. 12.91psi is what it makes wot. Ebcs clicks when given power. One thing I'm not sure of is the lines going to the ebcs. I can only find 1 pic and idk if that's correct. Wategate to port A which is closest to the the connector. Which I'm assuming will allow air through port b and back into the intake when activated. So I'm out of ideas unless my bov would cause this to happen. If it did happen to go bad during the turbo swap as I didn't move or unhook any of its plumbing
 
Bleed.
Intake (post MAF) -> EBCS -> WGA -> Compressor housing.

Edit:
Stock EBCS is 2 port normally closed IIRC.
Stock WGA has 2 ports on it (Image search for the stock turbo and you'll understand)

Im looking at the same pictures I've been looking at for a week. I see the line going from the bottom of the wategste to the compressor housing. And it looks like the one from the top of the wastegate going to the ebcs port closest to the connector. I can't find a picture but assume the Second port" closest to the firewall goes to the intake " post MAF"

But I really feel like I either have something crossed here. My new ebcs isn't working , or I have a cracked line. I will replace them tomorrow.

You have a leak and need to find it, soapy water! Could be the bpv leaking too

I tried that today. Pulled a valve stem into. Pvc cap. Put that where the filter should go. Pumped air into it and didn't hear any leaks amywhere.tried soapy water. Nothing. Should I block off the throttle body side also? I could release the air with the bov but if I turned the pump off there wouldn't be any air at the bov within a couple seconds.

Do I need to block off the throttle body end? Or just the intake to valve cover line?
 
I searched. Some said you will only get 15psi before it bleeds past the throttle body that's why I asked. Would a couple tiny leaks they has been addressed. 13psi it builds. I think I hear air from around the turbo somewhere but can't see any bubbles or anything. Mayne is going through the wastegate?
