hey fellas got a little question, i just bought a manual boost controller, like 8 bucks on ebay, and shneider is the brand i believe, and i ran the hose from the wastegate to it and then a hose to the intake manifold, is this correct, it says run it to wastegate and to a boost source, im guessing its a vacuum source, so i did that and then it says turn 1/4 turns to increase boost so i did that like 2 or 3 times and boost didnt increase still at stock boost... can some1 pick me up here. thanks

Do you remember where the wastegate was connected to before? Thats where the other end goes. Its a nipple on the stock side mount (if you still have one) intercooler cold pipe.

No, the wastegate nipple is on the hard plastic cold pipe.
