there should be a ajusting sleve (looks like a nut) on the wastegate rod....the wastegate is the round deal on the turbo with a rod on it....and it has a vac line on it from the manifold....it controls how much and when the wastegate opens....and how much boost the turbo will produce....hope this helps....dave

go to the dodgegarage.com go to turbo database and look how to convert a t1 to t2 then go to a hardware or pet store and get a aqurieum bypass valve (metal no plastic will melt in heat of engine) hook it up in the vacum hose that goes to the wastegate (be sure to have a a/f gauge and 20 psi boost gage) close the valve completely and then start making little turns drive after each one till u here a knocking sound (detination) and your a/f gauge goes red during boost turn down till the knocking stops at full boost. i have a 88 Dodge daytona that ran safely 16-17psi with out detinating. if you dont want to convert to t2 then due the same thing to your present car my 85 lancer t1 with ran at 14psi of boost. if u want to know more spoolinlancer85@aol.com

I had a really nice 1985 back in the late 80's and one day the rubber waste-gate control hose got a hole in it...wouldn't open the gate so it stayed tight shut and would peg the boost gauge! Full Boost and hold on...had so much fun I drove it that way for a few days but was careful not to give it full throttle with that much boost...didn't need to anyhow as just lightly pressing on the gas was equivalent to full throttle before!!!..Did replace the hose as I got nervous I was gonna pop the engine:) Indiana...

Can you turbo-charge a stock 92 dodge shadow?

you mean naturally aspirated ...and yes you can i have done this on my old dodge daytona you will need a complete turbo wiring harness,computer,and the head off another turbo dodge shadow you will also have to make a hole in the engine block for the oil-drainback tube from the turbo but in all honesty it would be less time consuming to just find a turbo shadow and move over everything that way everything fits because turbo dodges wiring harnesses are different on daytona,omni,shadow,and lebaron turbocharging a n/a block would take a toll on it because the compression is higher and the rods are weaker the rods on the turbo dodges are forged

Will a 1999 dodge diesel turbo work on a 1992 dodge diesel?

Yes it will, the turbo on a 99 is much smaller (12 cm) than a 92 (18-21 cm) the smaller turbo will give you more boost at lower RPMs, but less at higher RPMs. The down pipe on a 92 will need to be modified to hook up to the turbo but everthing else will be fine.
