Default Wastegate sol ?

Was thinking of doing the free mod with the BCS restrictor which is when i noticed that the wastegate solenoid is connected but no vacum hose of such connected to it at all. The only vac hose i see is coming from the wastegate actuator that gets T'd to the BOV . Is this right. I have no boosting problem and its a consistant 10 psi. The only thing my car doesn't do is if its in neutral and u step on the accelerator pedal it wont build any boost no matter what rpm u rev it up to. But when the car moving i boost between 3.5k-4k. Could that be the reason.

Nadda.. Just wondering beacuse i saw a few BOV video and ppl just reving there engine and there car building boost. My friend eclipse does it when he in neutral and just playin with the gas peddal. Curious that all. About the vac hoses to the wastegate solenoid. Do you know where it normally suppose to come and go to.

yea there should be two hoses on the wastegate solenoid i believe. One of them goes to the intake then the other i think is the one your talking about which is the one with a "t" on it. One part of the T goes to the wastegate and the other goes to the compressor housing.
