- for the wastegate
- ecu
- and before the throttle body

but i couldnt tell u for sure which way they fit to the boost solinoid

but at a guess looking from the right side of the engine left nipple would be to the before throttle body position
top nipple to the ecu
right nipple to the wastegate

From memory, the rear connector heads down to the wastegate, the bottom one goes to the throttle body and the front to the non-charged section of pipework just after the air filter


WOO! Servicebox agrees with me :lol:
