other options are to drill and tap the compressor housing, weld a fitting on the charge pipe or run something like this http://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant..._Code=ATP-FTG1

I drilled and tapped for 3/8" NPT and used a 3/8" NPT -6AN orb fitting to feed a solenoid and the wastegate. I had to cut down the 3/8" NPT threads to reduce the amount of protrusion into the discharge path.
