Could you be a little more specific? the vgt is the variable geometry turbo...But you say you already have it out. What "two plug in things" are you referring to? As far as I know there is only one sensor that plugs into the vgt.

OK you have a 2003, the VGT is the turbo. The two items are ICP (Injection Control Pressure) and IPR (Injection Pressure Regulator) that are located to the rear and under the turbo.
