I tapped the FPR for the vac source for my WG,BOV,and boost Gauge.today I almost took it to boost but all of a sudden it bogged!The car almost died!Has this happen to you guys before?If I tap into the Brake booster will it effect my braking?I also dont have a missing link right now and the chipped ecu is not installed yet maybe it went to limp mode?Thanks

It was probably limp mode, since it KO's once it sees over 1psi of boost.

As for what to tee off of, some will say they have no issues using the FPR hose, but I never liked that idea. If you use the brake booster hose, you're using a hose with aprox. 9 times the volume (1/8" vs 3/8").
