Follow those directions, and then hook the hose up to your internal wastegate instead of the external one you don't have.

Good plan. I got mine to work pretty solid at 8 or 9 psi but I had to cut the spring to get it to work well. Then my radiator fan grabbed the hose and threw the whole thing out the bottom of the car on the freeway.
