Running vacuum for turbo
I'm getting serious flutter and I've read that it's technically compressor surge. Obviously that's bad. I just installed the turbo system and want to make sure my vacuum setup is correct.
I first cut my brake booster vacuum hose in half. I then reconnected the ends of that hose to a vacuum manifold.
I have a line going from cold side turbo, through MBC "T" with the arrow being the direction of flow towards the wastegate. From the "T" a line goes to the arrow on MBC. The other nipple on MBC is then ran to my vacuum manifold.
Then, I have a line gong from the BOV to the vacuum manifold.
Is this correct?

Re: Running vacuum for turbo
$20 says you cut the brake booster line on the wrong side of the check valve
