putting it to the manifold will be fine, if you have enough open vaccum sources. I wouldnt let it share a small line with something else thoug. That's why I got the vaccummanifold....to split the brake booster line and give me a large source to share on.

Hmm, I understand what you're saying now. I didn't know you lost a psi or 2 through the IC like that. My gauge is off by about 2psi anyway from comparing it to the dyno. I might re-route my lines straight up to the empty source on the intake mani.
