Parts Required
1 metre of vacuum hose 6mm i/d – cut into two 50 cm lengths
4 hose clips
Cable ties (optional)
1 after-market boost gauge (highly recommended)
Tools Required
1 philips screwdriver (for the Toyota hose clamps)
1 small flat screw driver (for the hose clips)
1 pair of side cutter (to trim the cable ties)
Determining the desired
position
Take
a few minutes to decide on the desired position of the relief valve.
Questions to consider may be :-
Where can it be hidden out of site ?
Where can it be easily adjusted ?
Where can I route the piping ?
NOTE:
The installation instructions below not only explain how to plumb
in the relief valve but also highlight an ideal location for the valve
between the fuse box and battery.
This picture shows an ideal location between the fuse
box and battery … 
Installation
The
following instructions are based around a GT4 install however the
principal is the same for any turbo-charged car. The important thing
to remember is to ensure the flow of the air is from the turbo to
the ball end of the relief valve to the waste-gate actuator. Where
the relief valve is mounted is really incidental although pipe lengths
should be kept to a minimum.
Remove
AFM unit complete with the air filter. 
Undo 2 fuse
box fixing nuts and rotate fuse box into the AFM area.
Remove AFM
to turbo inlet hose.
Locate and
remove turbo to waste-gate actuator boost hose (short hose about 2 inches
long). 
Attach 1x50
cm hose to turbo outlet nipple and secure with 1 hose clip.
Attach 1x50
cm hose to the waste-gate actuator inlet nipple and secure with 1 hose
clip.
Adjust the
relief valve so approximately half of the adjuster threads are showing
– be careful not to completely undo the relief valve as the ball and spring
may drop out.
Attach new
turbo outlet hose to the relief valve.
Attach new
waste-gate actuator inlet hose to the relief valve (knurled adjuster end).
Route hoses
neatly down and along the wiring loom towards the battery (optional).
Locate relief
valve on the battery (temporarily).
Refit AFM
to turbo inlet hose – ensuring relief valve hoses are underneath the inlet
hose.
Refit fuse
box ensuring the relief valve hoses are sandwiched between the fuse box
and battery and between the two fuse box mounting lugs. 
Refit
AFM unit and air filter.
