Thread: Turbo setup vaccuum diagram

run the BOV off the same line as your FPR, and run your gate off the compressor side of the turbo

dont listen to chapnutz lol

why not? vacuum is vacuum and boost is boost, simple as that. People make such a big deal out of what vacuum line is where. Sure it would be nice to have everything on it's own individual line but there's nothing wrong with two things sharing the same vacuum source. A lot of newer vehicles with the plastic manifolds etc. don't have enough vac ports and use a vacuum block with no ill effects.

It's not horrible advice but I would prefer to not use the fpr line for safety reasons. I usually run the gate line closer to the TB since the boost signal will be stronger

I have always ran my BOV off the same source as the FPR, there is nothing wrong with it...boost has zero effects on the BOV as where it causes your fuel pressure to rise and the vacuum/boost effects the BOV when you close the throttle and it causes the BOV to open allowing the excess boost in your piping to escape...how could that effect "safety"

Im not referring to the boost pressure affecting the fpr. I'm talking about adding in a tee to the line which is 3 extra failure points and the.fpr is not where you want to have a hose pop off

I'm very much aware of how a bov operates but thanks for the quick lesson.

if that hose comes off it goes rich not the end of the world and you will realize it pretty quickly. No good vac hose should pop off

True but I still think the port right behind the TB is better

i think this is all wrong and should just tap the manifold in the back or get a vac black

How is boost signal stronger? :: I think you mean boost pressures would be more accurate with what the motor is actually ingesting.
