yeah who cares it goes into the compressor side, so plug it off good. If i were you id plug both of them off and use your wastegate signal off your intake manifold

is it better to use a vac line from the intake manifold for the wastegate? is it because it will give you the pressure in the manifold as opposed to the charge pipes?

A lucky pebble that is small enough to get through that screen is still going to ---- up your turbo, but you probably knew that.

or maybe a little clip thingy goes there..to route some line or wiring ....

That's what I was thinking. If you're going to put a screen on there, at least make it functional. :P

He was thinking ahead for when that season comes where there's tennis balls all over the streets. lol.

Plug it. It's not a good spot for a boost gauge, tard. You'd read 10psi of boost off that, and get 7 to the car. :P
