Gutting the turbo pedestal help

When you are finished gutting the turbo pedestal do you plug the EBP acutention solenoid back in on the pedestal? If not ,why?

No. You leave it unplugged so the PCM doesn't command the EBPV to operate and flood the chamber with oil which can rob the turbo of oil since the chamber is no much larger.

Do you know what are some of the conditions that need to be present for the PCM to command the EBPV to operate?

Cold weather or possibly a faulty sensor. Why are you wanting to leave it plugged in?

just wondering if it will set a code and then the engine might run differently. I don`t like pulling sensors off and not knowing the ramifications of not reinstalling it.I just installed a new turbo ($$$$) and i don`t want it to go south prematurely from something stupid i did.

If you don't want a code set put a 470 ohm 1/2 watt resistor in the plug.
