Jason can you give a few more details? I have a Hahn MBC and am wondering where to put the line from the WGA.
so far, the best source I've used for the MBC is the TIP line right in front of the throttle body. if you follow the intake manifold, you'll see something similar to this:
intake manifold > throttle body > plastic pipe (about 3 or so inches long)> rubber hose (big one, about 2.5 inches diameter) > intercooler

on the plastic pipe right at the throttle body, there's black plastic line. this runs to the solenoids (up by the passenegr side shock tower) and then to the tip sensor on the firewall. Connect a new vacuum line to this plastic pipe (either unplug the tip line from the pipe and hook your line up to the nipple it was using, or leave the TIP line connected and just tee off it).
Unplug the brown line off the WGA itself (plug that brown line). Connect the other end of that new vaccum line to the WGA, where the brown line orginaly connected to. Now just install your MBC in that new line..
People have tried various other pressure sources, and so have I, but this has been the best that I have found so far. I haven't yet tried the manifold side of the throttle body though, and i'm thinking it would be the best if the vacuum doesn't cause any problems.
