DAMNIT, not again...

DAMNIT, not again...
I know, this comes up all the time but.... I need some clarification. And, yes I did do a search, but it's very vague. So, here it goes. I found this about doing the poor man's nonseq conversion...

1. Take the air box out, and the 2 hoses that supply air to the turbos.
2. Take the blow off valve and charge relief valve off
3. Disconnect the vacuum line to the charge relief valve and cap it at the upper manifold.
4. T into the blow off valve´s vacuum line, and run a new line to the old charge releif valve.
5. Remove all vacuum lines to the charge control valve on the rear of the Y pipe. This should dissable the butterfly in the Y... keeping it open always. Besure to cap all the removed vacuum lines to the manifold and Y pipe.
6. Jack up the car, support it with jack stands, and take off the front passenger side tire (this makes it tons easier to get under and out of the car.)
7. Remove the head sheilding to the under neath of the turbo (should be 5-6 10mm nuts and bolts)
8. Remove the keeper pin from the actuator rod and seperate the rod from the door mechanism. Wire the door open. I ran a wire around the actuator around the door lever and back about 3 times. (tip: with the car off, the door is closed. to open it, it should be rotated towards the front of the car)
9. Remove the vacuum lines to the Turbo Pre Control actuator, remove the rod to the door, and wire it open. Make sure to cap all loose lines.
10. Leave the direct pressure line (the one with the restrictor) on the Wastegate actuator.
11. Resinstall all your intake hoses, make sure it is all tightened, and take it for a spin around the block

For number 8, which actuator?
For number 10, what direct pressure line? I'm confused...
And last but not least, to get this conversion to work correctly, should I have a perfect 10-8-10 before attempting this converision? Because, at this time I have a 6-5-5

This should help you out:

http://www.scuderiaciriani.com/rx7/non-sequential.html

I think that the first website gives you a way to convert to a non-sequential system as a TEMPORARY solution to any problems you may have with your boost (if you have any). Someone suggested this to me so that I could eliminate some of the electrical equipment as being my boost problem. I haven't gotten a chance to try it out yet though. Good luck and I hope that helps.

YUMMY, Thanks guys... I've actually been thinking.... I hate all these headaches, so I'm gonna try the poor man's... then most likely go to the full conversion! :-)
