Hey guys,

I think I could have my solenoid plumbed backwards. On the wastegate solenoid, there is a spot for two vacuum lines to hook up..... (my original filter is long gone I think). One of the ports has a retainer clip thingy built in.... as to grip the vacuum line to keep it from coming off.... it is closest to the intake manifold..... the other port (the one closest to the pass fender) doesn't have this..... which one goes to the Y coming from the turbo/wastegate..... and which one is supposed to have the filter attached and vented to atmosphere....???

Currently mine is hooked up on the port without the hose gripper thingy......
 
The retainer is made to hold the filter but the solenoid will function properly at either port.

HTH- Jimmy
