Default external wastegate plumbing

right i'm fitting an external wastegate and turbo to my escort when i get around to building it

the wastegate and manifold etc all came from a car that reyland built
it was all plumbed in and working
but its been lying arounf now for a while and i cant remember how thew vac pipes all go
the external wastegate itself had 2 pipes going into it, and the turbo has 1,
it did not run with a boost controller, it was just piped in thru the amal valve somehow using 2 bleedvalves,
any help/diagrams or information on this would be great as i've drawn a blank with it,
i should have made a diagram when i stripped it

i did ask martin a while ago but never got a reply,
i know he's a busy guy so i dont want to keep annoying him

Do a google search for turbosmart wastegate and their instruction come up online. They have several explanations on different hook up methods depending on what you are using and want to achieve with very helpful diagrams. You might not have a turbo smart wastegate but the principles will be the same.
