manual boost control pic request

Sorry guys, i usually hate pic request threads, but just want some ideas where to mount this mbc i got.. stock turbo btw. I could care less about having adjustibility inside the car so fixed in the engine bay is cool.

you can ziptie it somewhere. it's not exactly a show-quality way of installing it, but I've done it and it works.

i got a jdm turbo and noticed the line from the turbine/actuator also tees off to another vacum source underneath the intake manifold?

is this an s4 or s5 turbo? on s4 there is a twin scroll solenoid valve controlling the twin scroll actuator. on the s5 there is a factory boost control solenoid that is tee'd off the wastegate.

Bypass the hardline if you're using a ball-and-spring type controller. If it just bleeds off air, you can connect it to the "tee".
