ND single Turbo with duel waste gate confusion

So as I am getting closer to starting this car after 3 years i hit small issues that are annoying. I am looking for the correct diagram for a single turbo with duel wastegate set up. I googled it and saw a diagram but the hoses are set up like a twin turbo 2 wastage set up on the car now (not hooked up). if I would follow the single diagram I saw i can't do it with the TurboSmart wastgates I have cuz one does not have a spot for a hose to hook into. Running a 58/66 turbo with two 40mm Turbosmart wastegates with a Gleaseman exhaust manifold and downpipes.

first one is boost controller with one line going to turbo and the other with a T on it. second is one wastgate with 2 holes to use and the 3rd one only has one hole to use. so would i route line to 1 of the wastegates then tie them together. but which one do I route the vacuum lie too? top or bottom?

Am i getting this right? You are saying one of your wastegates has only one port?! You need to screw the fitting in and black the holes you arent using. The cap on the wastegates can be oriented so youve got your ports pointing where you want them.
To plum twin wastegates, simply tee them together and plum them like one wastegate.

The wastegate with 1 port will have a boost reference hose to the wastegate with 2 ports.

The other port on the wastegate with 2 ports will go to your boost controller or directly to your boost reference source.

They are daisy chained, it couldn't be simpler.


Just make sure that your wastegate with 1 port has where the 2nd port would be blocked by a plug. Otherwise your boost will just leak out and wastegates never open...
