Vacuum source for wastegate with MBC

[BoostedDB8]

Just intalled turbo kit in my car. Im running Tial wastgate and useing a manual boost controller. Should I run the vacuum source for the wastegate from the compressor or from the manifold and do I leave the top port on the waste gate open?

top port is for a electronic boost controller. yes you can leave it open.

here we go


just use like a 2" piece of vac line and put a nail or something in it and hosecmap it shut so it doesn't leak on the turbo. i've never liked those things... and most big turbos don't even come with them anyway. the vac at the IM is a better reading anyway.

i personally only run accesories from the brake booster line. i tap in with a vacuum log. end of discussion. epoxy the hole shut on the turbo if its got a internal wg feed nip.
