    When you said port, did you mean ports? If it's like my MVS WG it'll have about 3 unused ports
    My old TD06 setup used to have a supply from the cold side with no problems so I can't see that being an issue tbh.

    I used a nipple that you screw into a silicone pipe. Gary might have one, I'll ask him in a minute. Can't see it being the problem thoughtbh.

    There should be 3 bottom ports (2 blocked, 1 in use) and 2 top ports (1 blocked, 1 in use). Check that first.

    Then put the boost feed directly to the bottom port on the wastegate and remove everything else. See if that works.

    If you missed a bottom one it would never open.
