Its got a manual boost controler in it, i would like to find the diagram of where everything is so i can hook the gauge up and get a rough idea of what boost i running.

Huh?

Its for sure an aftermarket cat welded into the straight pipe about halway between the motor and the muffler, which is also aftermarket. Dont have to worry about emissions where i live, but all the emissions are still hooked up.

A picture is worth a thousand words, are you sure it's not a resonator. Half-way between is about the ideal location for a resonator.

Im going to run some water through it per rotary ressurections site directions to clean out some carbon.




Much obliged, i have an fsm for an 86, which didnt have a turbo model that year lol.



Well i have read a lot of stuff that turned out completely wrong so.......lol



Been here for a little while just not real active lol, and yeah im in the process, it has a manual boost controller, turbo timer, what looks like a fcd zipped tied next to the pressure sensor, ill get a pic, and an electric fan, i want to take that out and go back to the stock clutch fan, its wired to stay on as soon as the key is on.

Just get a thermostat. It will be easier/cheaper unless you have a shroud for the stock clutch fan.
