So I'm about almost done with the build. The car should be getting tuned next week. I have a quick question. I'm running a MBC and a tail 38mm wastegat do I connect the side port of the wastegaste to the manual boost controller and leave the top port open?

Yes. My 5.3 made 587rwhp at 12.8lbs with a little mpt70 so you will make your 600 no problem.

while i took the car to get tune a few days ago but didnt get finished on the first pull on boost it blew a heater hose and the charge pipe. it was getting way to hot also. Ran out of time since we tuned other cars and had to leave. Posted up a vid this is with no timing and super rich. Will be going back in a week
