I'm talking about from the turbo I don't need to run no line from the turbo to the wastegate then the Blowoff to the nipple on the side of the intake or just throw a tee in on that line and run it to the wastegate

Use the port on the intake with 1/4 hose, "T" it and run one to the waste gate, and one to the blow off valve.

this is something like what I use. Just run a line from the intake to it, then you can run a line to everything else from the distrubution block.. http://www.jayracing.com/index.php?m...roducts_id=210

why not...better to get the true psi from the intake than from the turbo since your going thru tubing,intercooler,tubing and then the intake...get a boost/ vac block...installit on your firewall and boost/vac reference from it...alot easier and cleaner...

Correct, and the pressure read at the turbo outlet is usually a little different than what the engine sees at the intake due to the tubing, intercooler, and the velocity of the air blowing past that nipple at a 90 degree angle at the turbo. More accurate at the intake.
