finishing up the turbo, have a few Q's
OK sorry I spent a few hours today trying to search for my answers, so I must ask something I'm sure that has been asked before:
1)I have nearly everything bolted up, but I am having a hard time figuring out where all the vacuum tubing goes... which leads to my first question. i have my T3/T4 bolted up already to the manifold, however because of that I cannot find the air nipple that leads to the wastegate! I've touched, and looked everywhere I can, but cannot see/feel it, i know it's supposed to be on the compressor housing. Can someone please post or send a pic to me to see where it is, I really don't want to reinstall the turbo/manifold. Do some T3/T4's not have a nipple?
2)So here's what I can gather from previous posts. A line needs to be run from the side of the wastegate to turbo. (I have the 35mm Tial, and can only see one visible nipple) Next, what do I need to run from the BOV? There are a few nipples on the Greddy Type S. Can someone please inform me where lines need to be run from the BOV?

Whatever the wastegate is set at it won't open until it sees that pressure. If there is a pressure drop across the cooler then you will run higher boost than if you plum into the manifold. The boost controller moves the boost wherever you want it anyway. Look at all the factory toyota turbo cars and they have the line coming right off the turbo to the gate. 1psi of pressure drop will give you 7psi in the manifold and 6psi at the turbo. If the wastegate needed 8psi to open then you will have 9psi in the manifold and 8psi at the gate...........
