Default **Need help with manual boost controller setup**

I need your help once again H-T!

Right now I have a single vacuum line going from the side port of my wastegate directly to the compressor housing port of the turbo. Currently, my boost will not pass 5psi. My question is, what is the best way to install my manual boost controller?

Should I cut into that line and T' the input portion of the mbc into it? If so, where do I run the output portion of the mbc? The BOV vacuum line? Intake manifold vac line?


Thanks in advance guys!

P.S. Before you answer, remember that I have only one vacuum line and it runs from the side port of my wastegate to the compressor housing. I'm just trying to figure out how to connect my mbc so I can get my boost up to 7-8psi.

the mbc goes inline. meaning, it goes from the compressor housing to the mbc and then from the mbc to the wastegate. what kind of mbc is it?
