External gate plumbing

[Tawfxr6t]

Hey guys, 

Got a few upgrades going on my car in the next few days such as 4" dump, hiflow gtx and an external gate setup but I'm gonna have to drive it for a week or so without a retune. Obviously going to be taking it easy on it and staying off boost but I have a question regarding the plumbing of the external wastegate going on the car. Would connecting the bottom port of the external gate to the front compressor housing ensure that the boost level does not exceed the spring pressure? I'm going to be running a 14 psi spring in the wastegate.

Thanks in advance for any help.

nah... only something that provides a proper amount of pressure to keep the port closed will do the job of holding the port closed and since the top is using the same (actual) amount of boost pressure then you only need to connect the top to your pressure source.
