Default Re: Couple of things !

Restrictor goes between the turbo nipple and the T-piece if you are still running a 2-port.
But I expect yours may of been converted to a 3-port boost solenoid and hence the plumbing is different and doesn't require the restrictor.

Standard 2-port plumbing :
turbo to T-piece (restrctor in pipe)
T-piece to Actuator
Bottom branch or T-piece to Boost Control Solenoid
Then Boost conrol solenoid to inlet manifold (the little black elbow just to left of main induction hose).

3-port plumbing :
turbo to Boost control solenoid (top port if OE 93-96 style solenoid)
Middle Boost Control Solenoid to Actuator
Bottom Boost Control Solenoid to inlet manifold (the little black elbow just to left of main induction hose).


re : headers, ported OE should work. It may improve midrange torque but loose a little top end.
