#62452, "dedicated vacuum signals to the sfmu and bov–WHAT To DO WITH THE REST OF HOSeS"




          

i need some ideas for the redoing the vacuum signals

there's three plenums available for vacuum signal hookups but seven (or nine) total signal lines

they are...
1) bov
2) sfmu line
3) boost signal
then four other hoses right?

i am thinking doing several vacuum hookups to connect the rest of the vacuum lines? anyone have pics of their vacuum hose signal lines???

nothing like driving with the windows down and the music low: i love hearing the turbo spool, swwwhhhttt!!!!

Work with what you have man, don't make a huge deal of vacuum lines. Buy some tee's and have at it. Prioritize your items. Vital components should get the most direct connections possible, while lesser important items can be tee'd several times. Just make sure you buy some good hose.

If you want to run one line to two things use a larger hose and a T that does down a size on the outlets. Kinda like home plumbing or how heat ducts work. This will assure you get enough throughput to each unit.

i have the WG ran off the brake booster line, biggest of mine then the mbc inline with that

then the bov n boost guage ran off the fpr

i have more sources but my set up works perfect..
i want to get a mcmaster carr vac box, look into that if you want.. or when i get a new intake manifold just drill n tap and make my own sources

I love dino and 2gnt. ####ers (my word) bliz stole it but i let him borrow it

I tried to group mine somewhat when I did my turbo. I tried to keep at the stock "stuff" (cruise control, etc...) on one set of tees and all the turbo stuff (SFMU, BOV, etc) on another set of tees. I think it makes a bit easier when trouble shooting.
