Factory waste gate solenoid

[Vendor Defendor]

Quick question: Long story short I had a manual boost controller on my car that failed so I am trying to hook up the factory waste gate solenoid, and memory eludes me on how to do it.

I thought it was as simple as vacuum line off of turbo hosing, Y into a vacuum line off of the waste gate and the third leg of the Y into either nipple of the waste gate solenoid?

Something inst right because the car is boosting uncontrollably?

Thanks in advance.

From the waste gate soleniod the vac line goes to the t fitting,then out of the t fitting the restricked side goes to the turbo housing.the other side goes to acuator.I dont think it matters which vac port you use off of the solenoid.Just the unused one is left open.

Don't go back, get another $15 MBC off ebay and keep the spool up increase.
