Author Topic: KKK K24 Boost Controller? (Read 2660 times)

Looking for some experience here. I am in the process of rebuilding my 1.9 TD in my passat and will be going to a rebuilt K24 turbo and Giles pump. I am wondering if someone can explain how they are installing a boost controller and what pressure they are setting it to. Also what are you using for a boost controller. I have read how some are doing it by teeing into the line on the turbo, and some are intalling a plug but I want to be sure. A diagram/picture would be helpful. Thanks

I'm gonna be using a 2-stage unit http://www.turboxs.com/shop_prod.php?what_category=1 on basically the same unit. I'll be running 10-12psi on stage one and 22-25 on stage two.
It tees into the line from the turbo to the wastegate. Instructions are included with the unit.

but i don't think i'll ever find one of those shifters again?

Hey....Go to the Hurst site and order just a Competition Plus handle (from the parts bin) and weld it to the Rabbit bottom. We used to do it all the time at the speed shop.
