Connecting Vacume Lines
 
Ok I am still a llittle confused by this and I need to weld on my BOV flange along with the holes in the pipes depending where I should get my vacume lines from.

I think this is correct but here is my picture
http://www.newbieforces.com/files/Turbo%20Drawing.JPG

- Ok so my wategate boost reference line (#2) connects to spot 3
- The AVCR Boost Pressure Solenoid (#1) connects to spot 3
- The BOV (#6) connects to spot 3
- AVCR Pressure Sensor (#3) connects to spot 2
- Line for Boost Gauge (#4) connects to spot 2
- Emanage Pressure Sensor (#5) connects to spot 2

Nothing connects to spot 1

Spot 2 is after throttle body and inside intake manifold
Spot 1 is after BOV before throttle body
Spot 3 is before BOV and before throttle body

Is what I said correct and if not how would you do it differently

Just post up like BOV (#6) to spot 1, or #6 to spot 1, or #6 -> 1

This way I know what I should do to make this correct. This may also be helpful if put into the faq for vacume line questions...

One last this Im putting the Stock MAF sensor on the turbo inlet (just in case) but will probably use the emanage boost sensor in actuality however is I dont will I need to make the BOV recirculate to after the MAF sensor on the intake for the turbo or will it be ok not recirculating.


Thanks sooo much for any help given! SOrry I know im still somewhat a noob... ive gotten most of my stuff welded with a gas mig I rented (beautiful pipes... well after i grind and powder coat that is LoL )

Re:Connecting Vacume Lines
 
all of those things can be hooked up to somewhere on the intake manifold after the tb...the bov needs to be there, not somewhere on your piping. what car is this on?

its for a corolla and thanks for the help....
My intake manifold has a spot but wont connecting 6 lines to the same spot be bad or does it not matter?

Re:Connecting Vacume Lines
 
im not saying they all need to be on the same spot, just that they could be. think of it this way: anything that needs to read vacuum (like the bov) needs to be on the intake manifold after the tb, anything that needs to read boost can be hooked up anywhere

Re:Connecting Vacume Lines
 
ok so the wastegate boost reference line and boost controller for wastegate can come somewhere before the throttle body (ill probably do that since I need a line for the PCV crap anyhow)

the boost/vavume gauge
avcr boost sensor (need vacume and boost)
emanage boost sensor (need vacume and boost)
BOV

all need to be after the throttle body
Ok I can prob find one or 2 spots to t off the manifold for these 4 items...

Thanks a LOT ghettoturbo very friendly and quick responce. I know I havent posted much but ive been reading here for a while and finally got the balls and all the parts together to try my own setup
