Hi guys,
What if i reduce the exhaust pipe for the turbo by bending it with a vise to make it fit between the body and the frame, will this sofocate the exhaust? or is it just better to cut the frame and go from there? i'm just about to finish the installation of the 6.5 td on my 84 sierra pick up, i need to finish a few things like the turbo exhaust and install a serpentine belt, maybe i will also need a turbo master. I was thinking that maybe, i could tie the waste gate on to the transmission hose coming off the regulator valve on the fuel pump, since the transmission is vacuum controlled i just have the thought that it may work, or what will happen? because the air flowing from the vacuum pump on the serpentine belt is computer regulated,i was thinking that the air on the transmission is controled by the vacuum regulator valve, then the wastegate on my turbo might work off this line,it's only a thought or will this work? have any of you guys thought about this? let me know .
thank you.
