    my turbo parts, whats missing?

    Well got the tial and boost gauge in today. I paied $180 shipped for both which i thought was a good deal. I was told the tial is in "working great shape" It looks good with next to no scratches, but i see its missing the one tube part, and isnt there suposed to be something else where the flange is?



    Where can i get these parts from? Should i complain to the seller or is it not worth it? Its a 38mm tial (yup real tial) with the .5 bar spring.

    Also here is my boost guage I really didnt want autometer gauges seeing as how my friends boost gauge is off as well. His guage never 0's out. It stays at about 1.5psi with the car totally shut off. Mine stays about 1-2 bars into vaccum. Is this alright? So im guessing that that reading as well will be off on my gauge now too?


    Just a money shot, if parts arrived like they should have you would see ALOT more parts here (rc550, 255lph, IC tubing, oil lines) have a lot more to go but its getting there...have $1004.99 exactly into this setup (including the parts not shown) It will be under a 3k build with a full exhaust and tune.

    Looks like you are on the right track.

    The parts missing from the wastegate are just brass fittings for vacuum hoses. You can pick up the correct sized fitting in the plumbing section of your local hardware store.

    I have never had a problem with my cheap ass Autometer gauges. I think they are the cheapest name brand gauges out there and they work just fine.
