I have the wastegate attached to everything except the Vaccum (?) lines....so how is this done? I have really sketchy instructions and it's the tial wastegate that comes with the dezod kit. This is the last thing I have to do before I'm done and ready to fire up!

All you need to do is attach the side port fo the wastegate to any boost/vac port available. One option is T-ing off the vac line all your stuff is on, or installing a brass nipple on the compressor housing and running a hose directly to that. The top port is used for electronic actuators that regulate boost. Some MBC's can use the top one as well.

which is the better way of doing this?
T-ing off the vac lines seems to be easier but is the other way more accurate?

but what is the line that say "Evap service port." It's on a line that looks like a vaccum line and also came off of my stock intake. do the throttle body line and this line connect to the t fitting that goes to the wastegate?

the "evap" line goes towards the back right corner of my engine bay as well if that helps anything...
