SF kit boost controller install
To install a boost controller (MBC, in my case) on the internal wastegate setup, do I tee off that vacuum line connecting the wastegate to the housing, and run that to a vacuum source? Which side of the boost controller points to the actuator? And where is the closest vacuum source to that thing? The throttle body one is kinda far...
