Stock BC Installation Question???

I'm putting my car back to stock and am trying to remember how the stock actuator is connected. I know one line goes to the wastegate and the other to the turbo, but doesn't it T into the intake pipe, and which hose goes to which nipple on the actuator? Thanks!

Here's the thing. You don't have to remember what goes where, because if you have the stock boost lines, then it's already organized for you. You can't just install any ole vacuum lines. You _have_ to use the stock boost lines, which have one long hose with a restrictor pill connected to the BCS going to a tee, and from the tee you have two short hoses going to both the wastegate actuator nipple and turbo nipple. The one with the red-painted tip has a restrictor pill in it and goes to the wastegate. Without this exact configuration, the stock boost system won't work right.

Thanks Warr. I'm going back to stock because I'm selling. I'm selling because I just don't drive the car enough.

Also, the way I have it installed now is: from the turbo nipple, the line goes to a tee. One side of the tee goes to the intake pipe and the other side goes to the aft nipple on the solenoid. The other line goes from the wastegate nipple to the front side of the solenoid. This is the correct way, yes?

Check these stock lines out ...

The picture below shows the SBC - The top hose goes to the fitting on the bottom of the intake pipe. Lower hose goes to the T-fitting by the wastegate



The pictures below show the T-fitting and the lines to the Wastegate and Turbo outlet pipe (before LICP)
