#288176 you should be running a line from the wastegate to the manifold... along that line use a t-fitting to put the boost gauge line onto it.

#288178 Yah that I get but exactly were on the manifold and what side of the wg the top or side ,also with a t splitdr how can I run all of the wg and gaige and bov at same time

#288179 The Bov valve will be on another line... I am pretty sure.

The what WG are you using?
my Tial one has only one line to it.
either one you run off tho will do the same thing... in my other cars I have run off both to manage boost better...
but on this one I am running off just the wg spring
but running the bov you would have to tap somewhere else. and for where it would be goin to on the manifold? just find a open port on there.

#288188 use the side one.. really they both measure boost.

#288228 best way to do it, like i said in the other thread you got going.. is to get a vacuum block and put it on the brake booster line between the intake mani and the check valve on that hose. then run ALL of your vacuum lines to it and your boost gauge.. makes things quite simple

It just hooks up between the intake manifold and brake booster...
and the way it works. is the break booster will pull vacume which will go through the block... It will pretty much work like your manifold.

The Break Booster is the big roung drum that has the break fluid resivour. It has one big black vacume line goin to it.
