Gday all.
I'm about to put a dts turbo kit on gq td42.
Can i run a boost gauge and boost adjuster tee on the same actuator hose?
Or should i run the gauge off crossover pipe and boost tee off waste gate actuator hose?
Any advice appreciated.
Cheers!

I ensure the boost as close them the intake as possible so I drilled and tapped into the inlet bracket.
If your in the market for a boost controller I have a genuine Tuebosmart manual boost controller that I fitted to the GU for 1 week when I fitted the new turbo. The Dyno Tuner removed it and tuned via my actuator. If your keen I'd happily sell cheaper than I bought.

My 06 TD42ti wagon was recently dynotuned by Diesel-Tec and they fitted boost controller. Not sure how was done but huge improvement in NM and KW

Give Mudski a yell he does fantastic Dawes and needle valve kits that allows you to control spool up rate and max boost is how ever high you dare to go
Definitely worth having a look. I have one on my GU and transformed it

Yeah DieselTec did the time on mine after I fitted the BorgWarner Turbo and used the Actuator adjustment to set my Boost and removed my Tuebosmart controller. Seemed strange to me but the new setup had a big adjustable Actuator so he used that.
Did he fit a Turbosmart unit?

Not sure as just says "Fit boost controller" on invoice but boy she goes much better now!
