I'm felling embarrassed about asking such a newbie question, I should know better by now!
However, it's my first time running an external wastegate and I'm trying to plumb it all to run with the stock electronic boost control solenoid and intake snorkel. I had a custom O2 housing made with a recirculated external gate, spring should be rated at 1.3 bar (19 psi). I want to retain the stock BCS because I will be further utilizing it once I have DSMlink. Also, I just don't trust cheap manual boost controllers.
So, here is how I'm planning to run the lines, essentially the same as with the internal wastegate. Would this cause any problems? The gate I got has 4 total ports, two on each side (under and above the diaphragm). I only installed one nipple and used grub screws to cap off the other 3.
In the following picture:
1 - Compressor Housing nipple (boost source)
2 - Top port of Wastegate
3 - T-fitting
4 - To intake snorkel (after MAF)
