Ok, so I'm ready to start hooking up all my vacuum lines On my S14 SR20 and I've been reading and searching for a few days and I'm getting mixed responses. Should I use a factory boost control solenoid or not. Some people say you get more boost with one and some say you get less. Any help would be great guys.

Yea you can do what Emperor_Tha said, or if you'd like to adjust your boost, just buy youself a manual boost controller from like Turbo XS, or a Hallman, their like 50-100$ from used to new.
