the hot air we have has two and the new ones all have only one (can't seem to find anyone who sales a two line for hot airs) Can you use the 87 waste gate with only one line and if so how do you block the line on the hot air and which one? Does anyone have a diagram?

thanks

you dont need the two lines, and are better off with a single line adjustable model, (everbody sells them) or you can make yours adj. follow the proceedure on this site. I cant find the link right now but you can bet Scott or Ken will see this real soon and post it for you. As for the two lines, the line coming off the compressor housing is boost/vac line that is the line you want to keep, and the other that goes to the top of the throttle body is only a vac line since it is pluged in before the throttle blade it never sees boost.
