internal wastegate question

[RedWagon]

Im still waiting for a manual boost controller to come in, but wanted to know if I didnt hook up any vacuum source to the adjustable internal wastegate would it run on spring pressure or like there was no wastegate there and be maximum boost? thanks

the internal wastegate would never open becasue it would think the the turbo had no boost. the internal wastegate is a spring the when the boost gets to the set ammount ogf prssure it opens up. When you dont have a line hooked up to it no pressure would open it up and your turbo would just run at maxium boost which you should never do.

Just hook up your BCS until you get a MBC to replace it

well my turbo doesn't have a nipple on the compressor housing, so I didnt know if I could use the BCS? Also I have a FP intake also that has no nipples either so I dont know where else I could get a boost vacuum source.

drill and tap one from the lower IC pipe.
