Hi all on the compressor housing on the t3 it has two take off one for the actuator but where does the other one go to?

Goes to the ECU on a standard metro turbo. Just block it up. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

Just been out faffing with my T3 whilst putting it back together, You can use that other takeoff for a bleed valve I presume in place of the ECU?

Shouldn't make that much difference should it? The two way union is pretty unrestricted. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

actually not with the t3. i used a bleed valve to bleed from the t piece to atmosphere and it worked. was very smooth and i got upto 14psi with the standard actuator. but i never tried anything more than 14psi :)

I have already connected my bleed valve inline going to the actuator. I will blank the other side off.

You unscrew the black plastic knob on the top and pour a little in.
