Default Running Dawes in parallel

I've got problems with the 3 port and Link controlloing the TD05 boost levels and have been told that if i use my dawes "in parallel" it will stop the overboost by allowing the ECU to catch up

How can I plumb the dawes in parallel?

Would call Pat but I left my phone somewhere

The Dawes just goes in the normal place between the actuator & compressor outlet nipple, but needs to be 'T'd in - at both ends - with the 3 port, which is also set up in the normal way.
The Dawes is then set to act as a 'pressure relief valve' as it were: when the Link manages to not respond fast enough, the Dawes 'relieves pressure' straight to the actuator. So you can use the Link's, ahem, 'boost control' on part throttle but still bring it in as hard as you want as you have the Dawes to protect you if/when the Link overshoots.
Sorry for all the additional explanation that you probably didn't need, but I thought it might help in working out/understanding where all the various pipes go
