not any of them.

you need to install the controller- solenoid  between boost- source (nipple on the turbo) and the wastegate.

Dont forget to cap off the existing wastegate to solenoid vac hose as well (just cut it and stick an M6 bolt in both ends).
\'T\' into the top wastegate (main one).  there is another way of plumbing it in to both wastegates, but main one works fine for me.

I drilled a hole in the bulkhead (side of servo) to run the pipe /wire to the controller.  Put controller on top of steering column.  Works fine in that position but you do have to reach round steering wheel to safely alter it!

I know i\'m bound to say it, but black is def the best colour!!

I\'m hoping to have mine installed in the cubby box, once set doubt I\'ll need to use it again until the next round of mods !

If anyone has any photos of everything installed, pipes etc then I\'d be greatful and I\'ll do a writeup in October sort of time when I do mine.
