i have the bottom port on my wastgates going to the the turbo housing. but i have my boost controller sensing boost at the IM.
so basically i have mine setup to control the boost that the motor sees but useing the higher pressure at the back of the car to help hold the gates closed

yeah, i had it set up like that at first but due to not building boost, i tried it directly at the compressor without any luck
