Default Need Manual Boost Controller Directions. (Turbonetics)

Searched around but no luck, and turbonetics isn't getting back to me.

I just need to know which direction the arrow on the controller should face. Does it face (or flow i guess) toward the wastegate or towards the manifold.

Dam its been a long time since I looked at one of them. I will send you a diagram tomorrow but if memory serves me correctly. The arrow is the air flow from the valve to the top of the wastegate. You can tee the line you have going to the boost side of the wastegate that line would be the inlet to the boost controller. Out of the controller to the vacuume side of the wastegate. The should be two 1/8 plugs to seal the other two holes.

Not sure i follow you there. So the unit doesnt just splice into the line going to the wastegate? You have to run a line to both ports on the wastegate (top and side?)
