Default compressor or IM for WG line

should i use the threaded hole on my compressor housing for my wastegate line or t off my intake manifold and put a plug fitting in the turbo? probly a stupid question but i dont know if theres much differnce, i guess the one of the turbo will show more boost a little and faster

If you go off your compressor you will lose like 1psi because of your intercooler. If you go off the manifold you will see what the "real" boost is. but there are debates to which is safer and all that goodness. I am "T"d into my PCV hose

i like running the wastegate off of the intake so the engine sees the psi that the wastegate is trying to hold
