Sounds like a thread title change might be in order.

Something like rtc goes rtb, rhoid the bootyfool seems more like a petite member

Hey Aidan, did you ever find the change user name button?

Aidan does not have the power to change user names. Only admins can do that, and we tend not to unless it is a really good reason.

As a certifiable full retard, I find this thread title defensive.

defensive? Because all our harsh abuse is directed towards RTC and not you? or because you're silly stupid and don't understand how words work?

Yeesh... If people think this is harsh abuse, they should try getting yelled at during surgery. Pretty sure the fetching Mr. Dallas was being self deprecating by saying defensive instead of offensive as well, heh.

In any event...

I installed a pre IC boost source yesterday. Need to go test it out and make sure there aren't any leaks or anything.

IC piping sucks to work with sometimes. I had to replace one coupler and it was a bitch getting everything lined up again after.

In any event... EBC and BOV are two separate circuits.
​​​​​​
EBC gets boost from a pre TB source and goes directly to the wastegate. BOV connects to the IM pre TB.

Edit: Bov connects POST TB on the IM. As boone said below, there's no such thing as a pre TB IM... Gahhhh....

The intake manifold is post throttle body......It sounds like you are heading in the right direction now.

Goddamit I meant to write post.

BOV is connected to the IM where the initial boost source was. Dammit.

******* seriously. I should have taken brains advice and taken a picture to spare myself the trouble of looking more inept than I actually am.

****.

Edit: Boone got it. IM is post TB. I apparently can't communicate worth a damn. Haha sorry Aidan...
