Maybe a few dumb ?'s but i can't wrap my mind around it. How do set psi on waste gate and bov, and what lines do you run to the bov waste gate, and boost controller.

bov and waste gate on mine both get boost from the same place on my car, i t'd my a vac line and ran it to both, and my wastegate is manual so i dnt need a boost controler, but if you run one you put the controler between the wastegate and its signal source (i believe), some mount them in the car, i dont recomend that, the least amount of line you use on a boost controler the better imo, personally i dont like boost controlers...

and both you wategate and your bov should have a set screw with a jamb nut on the top of them for adjustment...

wastegates have a spring in them that determine when it opens (ex. 6lb spring opens when it sees 6psi). without a boost controller, you run a vac line from the wastegate to the compressor outlet (theres usually a nipple). to raise boost, "t" to a boost controller off this line OR i'm pretty sure you can run a line from the top opening on the WGA (if it has one) to a boost controller.


and your BOV needs tapped to a vac source on the intake manifold
