I am running an internal wastegate on my t3/t4. I am using stock sr20det intercooler piping, and there is a fitting for a vacume line. Will i be able to connect my wastegate line to that vacume lin on the charge pipe?

yes, use the nipple on the charge pipe (before the throttle body, preferrably on the hot pipe. you want to run as short a line as you can. I have a boost ID nipple on my compressor housing itself which is what I use but if you dont have one, on the hot pipe works too)



^there's a picture of mine. it runs to my MBC, then the wastegate.

hope that helps,Aaron

Yes that is where I connected mine and it works fine, the only thing is that the mani pressure will be slightly lower due to pressure loss through the IC and piping, but for all general purposes that shouldn't matter much unless your super anal about it witch you shouldn't be, but depending on where you place your boost gauge readings could be different but not by much.
