Well there are 2 different ways. You either put the B/C selonid between a vacume source at the manifold and the wastegate. Or you put the selonid inbetween your turbo and the wastegate. You install it just like a manual boost controller as far as placement goes. If I were you I would take a the source from the manifold, and plug that little nipple thing on the turbo. Just take out the nipple thing and get a plug with the same size threads and install that. Then the B/C will be running off the pressure that is acctually in the manifold rather than just at the turbo.

Synopsis: It goes on the signal line to the wastegate.

you can use any boost controller you want, manual or electronic. a ext wg still has the same functions of a internal. a boost controller just alters signal.
