Default I need help with installing synapse bov???

Hi i need help installing my synapse bov it has 3 ports I have a greddy turbo kit with internal wastegate. i did not have a bov before but there is a T on the brake booster line thats running to the wastegate. My question is can i just cut into the hose thats running to wastegate for ports a&b? and what are my options for port C? i do not have place on the piping to plug in port C. i tried connecting it a few ways but no luck im not sure if the bov maybe damaged or just not connected right? so if ANYONE can please help me with the exact spots to plug in all the ports it would be GREAT!!!

i believe that port c needs an un-interupted boost signal, so in theory, vaccum to that port should be from the wastegate. if u have ur boost signal running from ur compressor housing to ur wastegate, than u can tee it from there. the 2 ports on the back should have vaccum supplied from the vaccum source off the throttle body (or vaccum manifold if ur using one). i have the newer version to the synapse so port c is no longer there. if u have some down time u can also send it in to have port c deleted from ur current bov.

im not 100% certain, but i think u should switch up where ur boost source is coming from. im almost positive that since ur running an internal gate that u should be getting ur boost source for ur wastegate from ur compressor housing. i could be wrong tho...im not too familiar with internal gates.

but for the most part, port c should be coming from between ur wastegate and compressor housing.

ok so what your saying is i should run the internal wastegate directly to port c? and there isnt a compressor housing port. is the brake booster is consider a vacuum line? i could use that for ports a&b right? what do u have ports a&b connected to? what do u mean by switching up where the boost source is coming from?

Theres no plug on the housing? Most turbos have a plug on the cover where u can use a barb fitting or something along those lines.

I have a vaccum manifold which takes 1 vac source an makes 7. I have a&b going to my vac block.

all of them need uninterrupted vac sources. and i would NOT interrupt the WG line that is the most important line to have.
