What exactly are you refering to in terms of vaccuum lines? Theoretically all you are going to feed through a vaccuum block is your BOV, WG, Brakes, FPR, and Boost gauge. and of course having the line off your IM going to your block....

Glad i could help. Be sure to put the backflow valve in the right location (as detailed in the picture). I've seen a handful of people put that in the wrong place and have some pretty odd problems because of it.

what is the backflow valve? comes stock on cars or no . . also there is an unmarked hose between the yellow and the pink . . thats boost gauge?
GM 3 bar map sensor goes where the stock map sensor goes or it doesn't work there

The backflow valve is a stock piece (its normally grey) that doesn't allow the brake booster to lose the vacuum it stores.

As for the unmarked hose, you can disregard that. It was originally a second vac source feeding the vac block, but soon thereafter i removed it and plugged the hole.

The 3 bar map sensor is not plug and play and cannot go where the stock one does. Omnipower sells a 4-bar plug and play map sensor if you are looking to avoid wiring and making a plug.

Yep, you will need to run a vacuum source to the gm 3 bar. Hook it up to the vacuum block/manifold or any other good source of vacuum.

I'm running the golden eagle one, but honestly they all function the same. Just make sure you use some teflon tape on the threads to ensure no vacuum leaks.

Look around at the sponsors here on honda-tech.

im one positive comment away from ordering it. looks like a quality piece for $50. i think it'll improve the response time for my bov because i have too many t's in my current set up.
