Default Vacuum line question

Okay, so I know i need to run vacuum lines to my Blow Off Valve - FMU - and my Boost Gauge - Here is my question:

To run three lines from one source - I assume I'll have to use some "T" fittings, can i run three t's off of one original line and get equal boost readings in each successive T? Or - Do I need to get three different sources of vacuum for each (bov - fmu - boost gauge).

Thanks, i've been thinking about this and basically i can't afford anything except multiple t's, anyone out there running this with any problems? yes no?

Thanks

Yes, you can use t's for all of that stuff and use only one vacuum source.

Reason: None of those devices "draw" vacuum. They simply read a vacuum signal. Very little air actually has to move. (Unlike, say, your power brake booster or PCV system)

Vacuum manifold is a good thing to look into too.
