Its really not hard. Your making very difficult, you dont use the stock bcs anymore so just cap the holes. One line comes from the compressor on the turbo to one side of the mbc (see diagram) then the other hose comes off the mbc and goes to the wastegate(see diagram) Bottom nipple get the line from the turbo and side nipple goes to the wastegate

Is that your engine setup? If not the stock T-25 or Evo III or whatever you have that is internally gated is only going to have one nipple on the wastegate. That setup pictured is externally gated and i dont know what kind of MBC setup is on there. Looks like a "Turbosmart" mbc but i dont know. As far as I know there is only one nipple that has to be used on a external gate but dont quote me on that.

no all you need is a little tiny plastic T. You can get them at just about any auto parts store

but what im saying is that i have the same MBC as in the picture and it came with that little "T" but with an internal wastegate where does the hose coming from the right side (in the picture) of the little cube "T" go, because there is only one nipple on the waste gate actuator.

the T is usually for tapping onto the BOV line

but it says on the "T" "arrow points toward wastegate actuator", and i was going to hook it up to the turbo housing not the bov, and plus the kit i have(same as in picture) came with two other simple little metal Ts. i think those were for the bov T. which makes me think it was supposed to be hooked up to the bov, but everyone here says that the turbo housing is best. and if thats the case then where do i use the T that is shown in the picture?
