Re: vacum sources for turbo stuff
I run my boost gauge from a T off the FPR line.
Boost controller goes inline with the wastegate, which I run off the compressor housing of the turbo. If you don't have a fitting on your turbo see below.
My BOV is run from the stock PCV valve line off the intake manifold. You don't need no ------ PCV with a turbo, so make use of that fat port on the intake manifold. T off it and run your wastegate if necessary.

I guess you covered it in the last post. :1 Eh, it's almost midnight. Shoulda been in bed hours ago.
