Ok the TT I have the previous owner, cut the vacuum lines on the solenoid, what's the best way to get to them.. And does anyone know the size of the lines needed and also the size of the T fitting?

He has it ran like this but without boostjets but the solenoid is still there just the lines cut

Hmm? My understanding is the factory solenoid is only there for safety boost. Are you trying to re-enable safety boost or get your car boosting properly? You may not be asking the right questions.

if the lines are cut just get a ebc or mbc, if they are cut you should still be getting actuator spring pressure, 9lbs i think?

No she is at 7 right now.. right now buying EBC and BCs are just a dream at the moment.. I am on a Ramen Noddle budget so I am trying to just put things back the way it needs to be.. I already have the Restrictors being made for me all I need to do is figure out what is the easy way to reach the solenoids. I want to run it just like this
