you could yes, but if you do it before the IC remember that you will have a 1-3psi pressure drop due to the stock IC so your turbo will be making 10psi but your manifold will only see 8-10...but the best way to do it is to get your pressure from the manifold...theres a great line for car modding K.I.S.S. - "keep it simple stupid" I'd just keep the line where it is,unless you really need that fast of wastegate response.
ok heres the thing i got the essential speed hard pipes with the ssqv and i wanna
it has a nipple with a line on the IC turbo pipe that goes to the wastegate
i wanna do the dual 505zoom setup.. bpv and bov
plus i have a boost gauge that need a vacuum line and a MBC... so what do u suggest ??
thanks for the reply ..

hmm not really sure why you would need a bpv and bov...I've seen a couple of other threads mentioning this but the ssq is more than capable of getting rid of 20psi....
I've got the ES stage 1 and 2 kit.
Yes, run the wastegate off of the upper intercooler pipe. Kevin explained that this location would reduce boost creap.
I'm running the dual valve set-up as well with the wastegate leading to the upper intercooler pipe, the HKS connected to the brake booster, and the stock BPV and boost gauge connected to the intake manifold vacuum source.
DSM - the HKS is more than capable, but running the dual valve set-up with the ES system will eliminate the stalling problem and the compressor surge.
If you choose to install the MBC, then you would place that in the line that leads from the intercooler pipe to the wastegate.
I have never installed this on my car because I am more than happy with its performance even thought my car only boosts 5PSI stock.
Hope that helps.

No problem.
I had a one inch fitting welded on the upper intercooler pipe. Actually, I had the wastegate nipple moved to the right and the I had the BPV fitting welded right where the wastegate nipple used to be. It was the most direct route to connect the BPV line.
Just make sure you find someone who can do stainless welds. If you just go to a muffler shop they will not do stainless welds and the fitting and welds will rust out on you.
