 OK..this is what I've round up and before I get my hands dirty I thought
 I let you guys know:-
 
 One variable boost controller (HKS - Norgen made)
 Some silicon tubes and T-joints plus clips
 Is an after market boost meter necessary?
 
 I will be hooking them as follows:
 
 Turbo housing -----|
                    |
                    |
                   | |
                   |V|
 boost meter------= B =----------PCV
                   |C|
                   | |
                    |
                    |
 Actuator-----------|
 
 I hope the above comes out ok
 
 Over to you all, guys! >>

Basically...you should find the vacuum line that leads from somewhere along
the intake piping or intake manifold to the turbo's wastegate. This one's
easy to find as it should be the only vacuum line going to the turbo. Now you
can cut and tee your manual boost controller into that vaccum line...or you
can remove the line completely and run new vacuum line so that you can place
the boost controller wherever you want to. I would recommend getting an
aftermarket boost gauge just so that you won't make the mistake of turning
the boost up to high...
