Vaccum Line Routing

Is this setup ok? Line from intake manifold goes to a T which then goes to BOV and manual boost controller which then goes to the wastegate. I ask because seems as soon as my WG opens (15psi spring) the car almost like looses all power. Not RPM/gear/throttle specific.

Re: Vaccum Line Routing

Ideally it's best to have a direct line off the compressor housing to the boost controller and then to the wastegate. Tee'ing it with other things delays the signal.

Re: Vaccum Line Routing

My stealth seems to boost spike more since I moved the wastegate/boost controller source to the engine side of the throttle body. Factor location is the instake side. My Talon uses the source right off the turbo compressor housing.
