In most cases, the ALDA will let the rack go up against the full load stop
before it sees 12psi, beyond that the turbo is just making
I repaired all the hoses OK. Just didn't notice any changes afterwards.
I am just not clear what went on when both, wastegate and ALDA, were
disconnected.
ALDA disconnected = no fuelenrichment = low boost - no need for the
wastegate.
ALDA connected, Wastegate inop = fuel enrichment to max boost, th
You might never notice, as the fuel will be cut off when you exceed max boost
by the overpressure cutout solenoid.
Replace the hose, it may extend your turbo bearing life.

Hans,
The rubber hose tells the wastegate to limit the power so with it
disconnected you will be at the highest boost possible until the overboost
sensor on the Intake Manifold kicks in and cuts the signal to the ALDA.
Without that line connected you should actually have more power (up until

After I did a long needed valve adjustment I stumbled on a disconnected ALDA
pressure line and fixed it. The cars performance improved drastically, ~20
sec. for 0 - 100 km/hr to under 15 sec.
Now I discovered the wastegate pressure line broken off and replaced it, but
this didn't make any noticeabl
