96 tsi awd auto. Did I mix up some type of lines? It appeared as if there were oem lines in the car that were t'd into the wastegate, I t'd into that, ran into the controller, then the jpipe is running into the controller.

I dont remember there being an oem type line from the wastegate on my 98gst when I did the mbc install. This line seems to run into an electronic type coupling thing...sorry for the terrible description.

Ok found out that the Jpipe ended up coming off from the licp which would probably lead to a bit of an issue. Now, what is my mbc t'd into. It's a black box below the maft with two or three lines running into it, one from my mbc that it's t'd to and another from the intake pipe.???
 
That should be your boost solenoid.

Thats what I figured but I didnt think I t'd into that at all on my gst. Whole new problem is the battery or alternator is dead. I forgot how fun it is to own a dsm againROFL

This is how it should be set up with the BCS removed. You should have no problems after that. Just find a good place to put your MBC.

So I can eliminate the boost line from that thing? Do I have to keep the bcs in there because of the air line connected to it?
