bolt to exhaust manigold w/gasket, put proper spring in, run vacume hose to a nipple in the intake manifold to read pressure, just dump it into the engine bay, screw putting the exhaust exit on the wastegate back into the exhaust stream it hurts performance, but if you really want to put it into the exhaust stream, put it in as far back as possible, after the turbo of course lol.
