    I hope the one for his boost solenoid has a check valve in it. The wastegate is not supposed to see vac, it can damaged the diaphragm over time.

    No boost controller seeing vacuum over here! He spoke for me. He wasn't right tho. Lol. Thank you for clarifying.

    I have my bov, fpr, brake booster, and boost gauge tapped to my IM.

    I don't have a boost solenoid hooked up yet and I know its not supposed to hook up to that, I'm just running a manual boost controller for now. I was just using it as a reference.

    All good, just wanted to make sure your diaphragm doesn't tear.
