B=throttlebody vaccume line t off
A=boost controller

You have it correct.
Boost pressure line goes to the top, regulator goes to the side.
So basically, top maifold/throttlebody pressure line....side from the controller.

Yeah..they are really both the same thing, both vaccum but the boost controller should go to the top..My bad, I researched..but not enough.

Well youll know if its backward..you wont be able to control your boost, itll be pretty obvious, you do have a boost guage don't you?

sorry frodo but those arent mine. i think that is on a dsm or something stock that is turboed. thanks for all the answers and yeah thats just my name. i got i job finally so im making the bills. just tryin to put this crap together. thursday maybe i will get the wastegate. and if i dont have a boost controller will it just go to the max boost the boost spring is set for? and yes a boost guage will be there before i start it.
