FINAL CHECKLIST: • Review these instructions to make sure that all fasteners, clamps & electrical connections have been installed & torqued correctly. • Check that all hose routings are free of any kinks or near any hot or abrasive surfaces, that may cause wear over time. Adjust or reroute as necessary to provide adequate slack for engine movement. • Refill all fluids (oil & power steering) to factory recommended levels.
Turbonetics logo. The bottom port should be open. For the wastegate the fitting should be in the lower port furthest from the red Turbonetics logo. The upper port should be open. 3. Check for boost leak at or after MAF 4. Verify throttle body is operating properly 5. Ensure the O2 sensor extender provided from Turbonetics is installed on the second factory O2 sensor. The second O2 sensor is the one on the S pipe.
3. Turbo seal failed 4. Verify oil pressure Maximum boost limits on stock motor: 1. The stock 2AZ-FE has shown to be rather stout but it is not recommended boost pressure be increased above 8 PSI. However, there are reports of several customers running 9.5 PSI of boost with success while using the Spearco WIS part number 30993. A DIY instructional thread on Scion Tc installation of this system is posted on www.turboneticsownersclub.com in the Spearco Water Injection System Forum 2.
