I'm getting tired of the melting vac line from my WG to my turbo. What would happen if I routed the line to the intake vac instead of the turbo? I realize that there are pro's and con's but I'm all ears.

I see, well, sorta. You said in that post that it is just simpler to run a line from the WG to the intake. I figured that the pressures would all be even and that your boost gauge would read exactly what's in the intake. I have a 1g SMIC but I doubt I lose more than 1 psi of drop. I see 3-4 psi at WOT. I don't mind the low boost b/c I drive the car 200 miles every other if not every weekend and I don't trouble with tearing apart my motor and having it together before monday's class. I'd like to 5 psi w/o a boost controller. The screw on top of the WG is out quite a bit but it shouldn't make more than psi difference. The main problem at hand is still the vac line. I have used a cheap silicon line, but I might just buy an RRE silicon set.
