yep. they'll work on any wastegated turbo setup. they basically limit the amount of charge air going to the wastegate to 'fool' them into thinking you're at a lower pressure. this makes the wastegate open at higher psi, and should be adjustable.

they tee into the hose or metal line going into the wastegate. (looks like a can)

Depends. What do you want to do? How much boost do you want and what is your turbo set-up?
