Default Broken boost port on almost new Profec B, need some creative ideas?

Some idiot broke the boost port. Any ideas on a fix? I was thinking about just running the hose straight to the circuit board, but i am not sure if that little black box the port connects to does anything other than relay pressure.

Greddy has fantastic customer service. Sent it back to them and they fixed it for free. In addition, they tested it before they sent it out and found out the controller was not relaying the proper signal to the boost solenoid. We sat there troubleshooting why this car couldnt hold the right boost for a long time. Checked leaks, wastegates, you name it, we checked it. Turns out it was the controller and they fixed it for free as well. Huge thumbs up for great customer service.

thats easy.

Hang it up solid so the vacum port hangs down to the ground. Mix up some 1min epoxy stick it back on let dry then take a drill bit and use ur fingers and clear out the epoxy inside.
