if it was me i would drill and tap an 1/8 NPT right in the side of the compressor where you normally see them the casting should be plenty thick to support a 1/8" nipple. or in the intercooler pipe right out of the turbo.

As mentioned, BOV and WG should not be referenced at the same place. Also, BOV should not be opening at idle or part throttle. WG should be referenced to see only boost. BOV needs to see both boost and vacuum. I thought the RPS BOV was made for them by JGS. You should only hear the BOV on deccel after you've been in boost.
