Just wondering how do i hook up a forge MBC. Because the one i got now only has to plug in spots and this one has 3 ports.

cap one of those side ones off and the inlet is the side opposite the dial, and the other spout goes to the wastegate. I got bored so i modified SBR's cheat sheet for ya.

Does it matter if i plug the WG hose on the side or the bottom?

Yes it matters. The pressure source must be connected to the bottom nipple. And the wastegate must be connected to one of the side nipples. Man I love the word nipples!

Thank you! So is the hose that runs from the BOV line is that the pressure line? Or the one that runs from the WG?

yeah pressure comes from the intake manifold when the throttle plate is restricted it "pulls" the bov open and opens the wg via boost controller.
