Hello

First off you need to be careful how you set up the valve. It can ruin your emissions and fail the MOT if setup wrong.

If have one on my mpi. Don't have any photos to had but I made a bracket and mounted it on the LH side of the engine bay. I then had to make up some fuel line to run from the fuel rail to the boost valve and from the boost valve to the return pipe back to the fuel tank.

If the lambda sensor is broken then I'm surprised your car runs at all as it needed for the ecu to adjust furling etc. lol

I will get some photos tomorrow as my car is kept away from my home and I can't remember which way round it goes.

The boost valve is marked with arrows showing direction of flow.

Youll probably get a power boost if you fitted a new lambda sensor!
