Dale Clark has an excellent write up for a B/C install.

in the version i posted, the vac hose from the wastgate is spliced and the pre-spool is left alone. i used this to setup mine, but i am running seq. i didnt yet have to change the prespool, but i prob will once i get a few more mods

Could I use the procedures discussed in this thread to install a manual boost controller?

Check this for MBC install (although I would still recommend a EBC over a MBC):
