Just connect to the two vacuum lines that go to the stock BCS together. I have done this and i get 17-18 psi. The overboost buzzer has gone off i think twice since i did this which has been about a year. Leave the stock BCS plugged in or you will get a code.

when i by-passed my solenoid it was too much boost. so what i did was cracked open the solenoid, removed the spring, and now my boost only goes to 15. i drilled a very small hole in the solenoid, and now i get about 16.5. a 60$ boost control valve is probly your safest bet. im a cheap bastard, so i like any "free mods" i can get
