you could weld a nipple onto the relocation pipework for the high/low feature to work but theres no point, just bypass the high/low solenoid, this way it will be in high boost all the time

the metal pipe coming up along the cam cover, just leave that open to atmosphere.. just loop the pipe on the solenoid back onto the other pipe on the solenoid then to stop dirt getting into it

Get a pic up will make it easier for people to see what u mean.

What u are hearing is wastegate chatter I rekon.
Have you removed the standard recirc valve aswell?

I havnt a clue mate tbh the car is standard apart fen no air con and air filter it's the bit that sits into the efi im not sure what to do with it if it's ok left on or not will take a pick tmarrow n put it up
 
The vacuum hose from the efi pipe to the bit near corner of the cam cover. I chucked mine when i done mine it ent needed, have u bypassed the hi/lo valve? Youll. Need to do that first then ya all good to go, i think its just a breather hose

leave the small vac pipe from the efi pipe on just tuck it out the way. The breather one use a small breather filter and the intercooler one if its a top mount block it off mate or fit a dump valve job done just got rid of my efi pipe and meshed the turbo. :)

what your hearing is the turbo flutter not wastegate chatter, if it sounds like that is more compressor surge then flutter tho
