blitz boost controller sbc-id....help install
ok i searched for others with this boost controller and found some that are using it but peeps have it installed the way i did and others a different way.
before my turbo had a nipple on it. i had my Solenoid(in) line connect to the side port of my WG and tee tap to the nipple of the turbo. the solenoid(out) went to the top of my external WG. it worked perfect.
Now my turbo doesnt have the nipple on it. which i read i can have the solenoid(in) line connect to the side of the WG and tee tap to my intake mani. then the solenoid(out) to the top of the WG.
is it best for me to just tap a nipple in my charge pipe that connect right after the turbo or just tap it to the intake mani? which is better or does it even matter?
during my serch i couldnt find which way would be better. thanks in advance.

You can tap it from anywhere that sees vacuum/boost. Most people tap off the intake manifold because then it sees the same boost your engine sees instead of the turbo where it doesn't account for pressure loss through the intercooler and piping.

wasnt trying to bring this back but the search didnt help me. i was connecting the sbc id boost controller to my IM, but as i was getting the vaccum lines, i started thinking that the line might be real long. would it be bad to have the vaccum line from the WG to IM be around 5 feet? or should i just tap my pipping and put a vac nipple? i was told that the IM would be the best location but i thought the longer the line the less accurate the readings would be.
