So i have a 2g DSM and i have my wast gate T off with my b.o.v and my intake manifold well it work but not to good will drilling a hole into the J-pipe and welding a nipple on to it work and cut out the T on the b.o.v so that the b.o.v is just one line to the intake manifold and the wast gate line would be straight from wast gate to J-pipe ?? or will this not work ? also i plane to run a mbc with it .:D
 
Run the bov a line of its own to the intake, then take a line from the J-pipe to the wastegate. you can run just a hose with no MBC and it will be safe until you get a MBC.

Also i happen to think its best to get a non expanding type hose with the fiber threads in it, sometimes that silicone crap will expand and make the boost unsteady from past experiences idk about anyone else.
 
Correct, both the BOV and wastegate should have their own dedicated lines that are not teed into or with anything else. BOV goes to the intake manifold which should have a nipple on it, and optimally for the wastegate, shorter the line the better. Putting a nipple on the j pipe is an excellent place for the wastegate boost source.
