Default Dumppipe location on remote mount

Ok I have done some reading and some research, so please don't flame.

I currently own a formerly turbocharged 05 Scion xB
(waits for snickers to subside)

I had a turbo kit on my car developed by the now defunct ZPI Racing. This setup uses a MHI 14b turbo mounted under the drivers/passengers doors. My stock cat was relocated from its location to behind the turbo as the turbo is in its location. Located right off the turbo on the IC pipe is a TiAL WG.
See attached picture.

What I am trying to do is design and get fabricated a dump pipe for the WG. I had the kit on the car, but took it off to tweak it. When it was on, the WG just sounded like someone opened up an air pipe anytime I hit 7.25psi. Just made a really annoying WHOOOOSH sound. So any ideas would be appreicated for design and location of the pipe.

just get some flex pipe and have it welded on to the flange on the WG and then have it dump back into the exhaust system. Seems simple enough, but then again I'm a dumb noob. Good luck.

But where would you have it dump back in? I am assuming after the turbo, but how far down?

far enough down so that you don't have any sharp angles in the piping
