officially impossible to add boost controller for gsr w/ tial and drag
if you got the drag 3 on a 98+ gsr with a tial WG, for sure a boost controller cant be used. please prove me wrong. i attached the top nipple on the WG today to test for clearance cuz im gonna get a mbc soon, and man, my hood wont close. any suggestions?

You can buy two flanges an 90 degree from JC and get it welded. Not that hard. Or you can cut a hole in your hood, lol.

you can get a brass fitting thats shorter in height, works like a charm. I've done this before.

i have same problem on my b16 crx with drag3. i drill and tap a fitting on the side of the wastegate and put a flush screw on top to cap it. works great.

well I dont even use the top nipple on my racegate, I use the side like I did with my old hks, like the directions for most, I am not sure if all, manual boost controllers recomend, only ellectronic boost controllers, like avcr, need top port on wastegate.If I am wrong I am sure all of you will slam me, but on manual boost controllers, I never use the top port, Jason

On frank's car (dragngsr) The turbo port goes to the side port on the wastegate, a T is inline to go out to the in on the boost solenoid (the black box). And the top port is connected to the out on the black box. He's running the new blitz boost controller with id meter. Paul
