Vacuum question
I was looking at XS transam single turbo diagram and i was a little confused on some parts. I had a few questions on where to run these vacuum lines.
On my wastegate there are 2 nipples. one goes to IC piping and where would the other one go?
Can i just plug my FPR vacuum onto the back of the UIM?
Also, My kit came with an oil inlet line, and its pretty long. So im not sure where exactly am i supposed to run it to its destination from the turbo. WHERES IT GO!?

top nipple on the Wg goes to boost controller, side one goes to the nipple on the turbo
i just put my FPR on the nipple on the front of the uim
and i plugged the nipple for stock fpr (on the LIM)

oil line??? like a feed or drain???
u need both
feed unless u using stock feed line i hook my ss line to black and ran it across to the turbo and or drain i hook it up to stock drain (closest to front of engine, not the rear one)
oo make sure u block off the rear drain !!!

The return is hooked up and i took care of the rear one. Its the oil feed i had a question about. and about the top nipple on the wastegate. I dont have a boost controller yet but where should it run. and what did you mean by "side one goes to the nipple on the turbo " do you mean on the intercooler piping?

well some turbos have the nipple on the compressor housing (like mine) or u can put on on the ic piping also
well u need a boost controller for that either a manual home depot one or electronic
unless u wanna trust the WG spring for a boost conroller
the feed can be found under the oil filler plastic thing (forgot whats its called)
just use the stock line and does ur turbo have a flange with a fitting on it??? or no
that will determine what fitting u need so u can adapt to stock line
