Default Re: What's the best way to hoop up my MBC?

I went ahead and installed it, running it inline with the Y-pipe and tee. I deleted the vacuum hoses to the stock boost solenoid and the hose that ran to the rear inlet pipe and capped all the nipples. I retained the stock wastegate lines and tee. I noticed that although the distance to the rear wastegate actuator is much shorter, a large portion of the line to the front is actually hard line and the length of the soft lines for the front and rear are about the same. However, does the length of hose running to and out of the MBC make a difference? I can easily trim a few inches off of them.

I started off with the boost controller fully closed so I was running wastegate pressure (~5psi) and slowly started opening it until it peaked at 13psi.
