You usually just drill and tap the pipe then, put teflon tape on the nipple and screw it in.

Can I use a copper nipple, or what?

yeah you can just make sure to use teflon tape or jb weld will work good to..
just drill and tap

Maybe I forgot but , I thought the BC came off of the wastegate . Not on the nipple of the jpipe .

its actually suppose to be tapped into the BOV line and the other is suppose to go to the wastegate.

Wrong.

No the bov line is the whrong way to do it your suppose to get your pressure source of the turbo housing or the j pipe like i did..

Well I just bought an aem tru-boost, so I want to make sure I get it hooked up right, I don't have it yet but it will be here on Monday. Any more advice would be great.

Well if you wana do it right make sure you get your pressure of the j pipe NOT the bov you can ask any real tuner that knows about turbos they will tell you the same tapping of the bov is not the right way..

Use your J-pipe for your boost source. As stated, drill the pipe, tap it, and insert a nipple. Most are made of brass, not copper, but that's just semantics. I forget which size fitting is preferable, 1/8 NPT or 1/4, but if oldman sees this, he'll probably chime in with the correct answer, phrased in the form of a question.

Also, as mentioned, tapping the BOV line is the OLD way of doing things, and has since been proven to cause a few unwanted side-effects, such as opening the BOV at the wrong time and such. And if oldman sees this too, he'll probably chime in with more information, in the form of a haiku.

Ok, I will see what I can do. Thanks for all the help guys. I might make a tech/diy post for the boost controller install when I get it.

Thanks

Thats actually been done several times. But, good thinking though.

Use jay-pipe for source, be-o-ve line big no no, one eighth an-pee-tee.

And there you have it.
