Remove all the pills. They are a sort of manual boost controller from the factory and are now useless. And version 1 is your best bet. Version 2 is redundant. You have two nipple fitting, use one per solenoid. Version SWEET is garbage. If you were to run them in series(which is a bad idea) youd put the pre control first. Plumbing them in series will compromise one of the solenoids which is...to be avoided.

hey purerx7, B i think that all we needed to do to make it ver 1 is to cap off the waistgate line going to the stock solinode. If you guys see something wrong about this please please let us know its not just me who needs the info thanks.

that was one of my ? that i had as well, but in the diagram in ver.1 it shows that there is a pill in the PCA, so im going to make sure i have it out in the wastegate, is the pill at the bottom hose or on the top of the waistgate.

ok MCF im going to with version 2 as well, but can you tell me what exp. you had with it? also did you ever do vers 1 to make you come to this conclution the ver 2 was beter? thanks

Version one... Boost spikes and less than optimal boost on the primary turbo.
Version two... full boost on primary and secondary. No boost spike.
If there is a downside the transition was slightly more noticeable, probably because the boost comes on stronger on the primary, but I've been running it this way for three years now and I have no complaints at all.
Good luck

Pure,
In the diagram. Focus on the wastegate control and turbo precontrol.
The two hoses coming out (that are the blue and you can't see well), one goes to the wastegate control actuator, the other to the turbo precontrol.
In "version one", you splice the EBC motor in the line that goes to the wastegate control actuator. The line on the other side that goes out and goes to the stock solenoid gets capped.
In "version two", you tee the hoses from the source (the pic that you see two nipples on in the photo that shoes the actual area in this thread), to the IN on the EBC motor. Then on the out of the EBC motor you again tee it and send that signal (pressure or vacuum) to the actuators. In essence, the wastegate and precontrol see the same signal and are controlled by the EBC.
here is the full diagram

no.
where you have the IN is correct but the OUT goes back to the same place. Just think of it as you are inserting the EBC inbetween the first line.
Where you incorrectly have the Out should be capped.
