Installing boost controller
I should be getting my TurboXS HP manual boost controller this week; just to verify I'll be doing the following.

Running a vacuum line from the input nipple on the boost controller to the nipple I made on the IC pipe which is currently connected to the wastegate. Than, running a vacuum line from the output of the boost controller to the wastegate.

Sounds right?

Not remotely.
A manual boost controller is just a bleed valve. You install it in-line with the wastegate signal line which, hopefully, you have installed referencing the compressor outlet instead of the manifold.

He doesn't disclose the names of his slaves. After all he wouldn't want the cops finding them in his dungeon
