From MBC to XEDE
Ok I am getting a XEDE but now I need to remove my manual boost controller and hook back up everything like stock. Does anyone have a diagram of the factory boost wiring/setup and are there any special lines I need to use? I heard some things about boost restrictors and pills being in the stock lines. And what all do I have to do to get it back to the stock configuration?. Thanks guys

yeah..hose from the turbo and wastegate goes to the boost solenoid(the one towards the front bumper), then the other hose is from the boost solenoid(towards the rear) goes to the intake pipe!!

not to refire this guys question, but i am going to hijack this thread so i do not make a new one about basically the same thing. My question is just to clear something up. Since the XEDE is installed, is there no longer any need for the MBC due to the XEDE controlling the boost? That is how I understood this, just making sure I was right.

Yes, you can go beyond 25 psi, but, IIRC it either requires a second restrictor pill or a stiffer wastegate spring, depending on your turbo setup.
