Default boost CONTROLLER solenoid vac source: "T" into WG line, or directly from IM?

***BOOST CONTROLLER SOLENOID** (8am ownz me)

which is best, does it matter? I would think IM would be best, but the Tial diagram shows T off of the WG line. and the FR install shows off the brake booster. Trying to sort out how I plan to run all my vac lines since I dont plan to run a GE Vac mani.

I would hook it into the intake manifold directly. Since you would want the reading at the intake manifold, after all the pressure drop etc etc. Yet, if boost leaks happen, etc. it will read what the intake receives then, what the turbo produces at the other end? Im not making sense, but yea. INTAKE MANIFOLD FTW.

yeah from the 100s of posts Ive looked up, it seems that most people say you get best results by either off the IM directly, or off the brake booster. But different people seem to have different results with different setups.

any other opinions?

for a boost controller solenoid you hook it up to the compressor housing, if your turbo doest have a fitting then hook it up to the intercooler pipe directly after the turbo.
