^^^^ there they are
i already have everything else hooked up but that one, if i ran it back to the shop, would that hurt anything if i left it unplugged?

That line goes to your wastegate.
You could have found this out by looking at your MBC manual, or by going to TurobXS's website and looking at the online version here:

What? Use proper nouns.

What? Use proper nouns.

Right now i dont care about using proper nouns... I half to get the car back to the shop so they fix half the shit they didnt put back in right. So do you think i could drive with that line off and the other is hooked up to the wastegate actuator. Its about a ten minute drive

It would be fine just shift at low rpms and try to stay ou of boost.

Simply put, no. A manual boost controller is a book leak to begin with, leaving it unhook your car would run like shit if you could even make it to 20mph. Have you ever blown a intercooler pipe? It would be a lot like that.

Ok so i have everything hooked up down in the turbo area. the one on the turbo outlet and on the wastegate actuator. Is it possible that the hose that isnt hooked up is a vent to the engine bay? Because everything else that is needed to use it is there.

And I "half" to know what the hell you're talking about or I can't help you fix it, using proper nouns means I can identify what "this" and "that" and "it" actually mean.

What do you have the other end of the hose on the wastegate actuator connected to?

why do you even have a boost controller if you don't know what it does? let me guess, you bought it that way?

Oh,im so offended that a new member said i dont know what a boost controller is... Ya i bought it with it in it but i was just making sure the piece was just a vent to the engine bay. If you dont have a solution to the problem dont post.

Really? Well I'm offended that a Proven Member doesn't know how to properly upload photos or even put words together properly to form sentences....then responds with something like:

If that's the case, we don't have time to help you. There are certain rules you agreed to by starting a thread on our site whether you realize it or not.

I've seen enough to know this thread is just going to turn into an insult-fest on a topic that is quite easily searchable. Graveyard.
