Put it in the wastegate line, which is the one from the compressor housing to the diaphragm on the side. Block off the other line from the diaphragm at both ends of the line.
Leave your boost cut in until you get it sorted properly!

i still not sure about the third side of the controller, it got in and out then in the middle it got another smaller pipe coming off? does this need to be blocked of or plugged in somewhere else?? cheers pat

Without seeing what boost controller it is I can't really say.

thanks for the fast help

Ah right, that looks to be where it bleeds off boost pressure. So blocking it off would negate having a boost tap

[92mr2paddy]

mmm? block it of then?? and join inline with the wastegate line??,,

[slonlo]

leave it open
if you block it the boost tap will do nothing(eg you will be running factory boost still)

thanks guys
