wastegate lines
 
ok guy's this is kinda a newbie question so bare with me..and ive searched and have heard mixed responses.. im running a HKS T04R the greddy frontmount IC kit and the greddy 47MM wastegate on my s4 TII..i cant figure out where the two lines go to on the wastegate..do i drill two holes in the IC pipe and weld two nipples on it or does just one line go to the IC pipe?

depends how you want to run the gate. but easiest way is just take one line from inbetween the TB and turbo run it to the boost controller then run a line from there to the bottom of the gate.

since my compressor housing dosent have a nipple on it for the wastegate line do i have to weld one on the IC pipe or can i just drill and tap a hole in the IC pipe? will that seal?

I would drill and at least try to tap the first pipe that comes out of the turbo. Then you can seal it up with some JB weld. Yeah, I know...blah blah jb weld. It will look just fine. Or you can go pro and weld a bung into the pipe. Then thread it and put in the brass nipple. That would prob look cleaner/better/more professional. But not sure what level you are workn at :)

Im running a Profec B spec II and for mine, i have the one side going off the controller, into a T, one end of the T goes to the compressor housing, the other to the Side of the wastegate. THen my other line on the BC goes to the top of the wastegate.
