intake manifold removal question?????

http://www.rx7turboturbo.com/robrobinette/manifold.htm

I was reading this web site i found in the forum that is very helpfull and i noticed that it warns when putting the manifold back togther ".....to be careful not to swap the two electrical solenoid connectors on the front of the manifold, If you do you only get about 7 lbs. of boost from your second turbo...."

I checked the diagrams and i cant figure out which ones the site is talking about? Can anyone help me ????
I have this problem and i dont know which ones this site is talking about. I have the diagram attached so if you know please guide me or draw it in the pic or something. Thanks

Yep, the two solenoids at the front are the wastegate and pre-control solenoids. They are marked "I" and "J" on the diagram.

They are the two solenoids all by themselves at the front of the UIM, and not in the rat's nest.

Yeah they attach to the intake manifold right to the left of the words "PCV valve" in the diagram.

The factory painted one of the connectors and solenoids on my car. I just match the painted connector and solenoid up.

Its no big deal if you get them wrong Saul, they are easy to reach with everything installed so you could easily swap them back if you get them wrong.They are the two that attach to the front of the UIM just behind the crossover pipe.
