Stupid question.. redtop sr, can you t from bov to wastegate?

Vacuum line from TB to tee that goes to both wastegate and BOV.

Bump... anyone?

wastegate should ideally see boost only. ive always tapped the pipe and closest boost source possible.

Thanks Beems, appreciate the feedback. I'm planning to weld in a nipple on the hot pipe. I was just curious if this setup actually works? Meaning does it actually open wastegate at Mac boost?

Yes it will work. I doubt vacuum will damage the diaphragm. probably no downsides other that maybe response time
