Default MBC fitting on wastegate???

First off this is sceraxn im on a freinds name. Well i was having problems closing my hood b/c it was hitting the wastegate. Well i shaved as much as i could off the hood and it stll wouldnt close. The only way i can get i to close is by taking off the MBC fitting on the wastegate. My question is can i leave that fitting off? I was told to leave that open anyway if i didnt have an mbc...but i dont know about leaving a hole in the top of it. Can i plug it up with a bolt or someting? What choices do i have? Thanks

Sean

If you have a tial wastegate, wire the MBC into the line that goes to the back/side of the wastegate... that's what i did and it worked like a charm. My MBC was homemade with 2 fittings, spring and ball bearing, im not sure if this will help but just my .02

~good luck~
