HKS EVCIII Electronic Boost Controller Install

[Marklar]

Ok so i am plumbing in a HKS EVC III.

1) Do I simply replace the line to the wastegate actuator and bung the old line or do I put in a T joint.

2)The pressurized 4mm line thats after the throttle body and runs to the boost control solenoid, do I replace this line and bung the old one at the solenoid, or put in a T.

Basically what do I need to do to bypass the standard boost control

3) It says to connect to a source of pressurized air before the inter cooler, why is this so? wouldnt you want it after the inter cooler?

There's an extensive EBC 'how-to' in the members section here.

It'll tell you exactly where to plumb what in - it's not complicated but as you've realised, it's not simply a case of putting the new solenoid in where the old one is. You have a fair amount of re-plumbing to do.

Cough up that 20 squid and enjoy full membership benefits!

I read EBC installation at members section and gone through HKS EVC 4 installation and from what my brain worked out the plumming should be done this way:
- port 1 connects to any pressure feed on intake manifold after throttle body
- port 2 connects to port on the plastic elbow where red tipped pipe was connected originally
- port 3 connects to wastegate rail

Just want to make sure that my brain didn't make any mistakes HKS.jpgHKS installation.jpg

I have almost identical EVC4. Fitting and first setup done like manual says. Later was finally set by Eurospec on rolling road.
