so far there have been a few replies to my question, yet no one has answered if putting a barb on the charge pipe before the throttle body would make the waste gate work good? It's a waste gate actuator (internal waste gate)
?? :o?? :P

well, i think the point that has been made is clear. use a vacume log. a homemade one at that... 8)

how much more vacume do you want and what the ---- for.

all i need is for the waste gate to have it's own vacume source. i have the wastegate, blow off valve, and fuel pressure regulator hooked upto one vacume source outta the intake manifold. my boost goes up to max boost and then falls down 1 1/2 psi. this is with an internal wastegate and i'm sure it'll work better with it's own boost source.

So your asking if you put the barb before the throttle body is better than what? It's before the throttle body as it sits. Did you mean to say after? There is no vac in the charge pipes.

wastegate doesnt need vacuum, so yes, you can run it off of a charge pipe.

it was hooked upto the turbo compressor housing and i hooked it upto the manifold to see if it would spool up faster and it does.
