Default vacuum source....where exactly?

i've done searching and this is what i came across, tee it on the vacuum source of the stock fpr OR the brake booster.

is the brake booster really appropriate to get vacuum coz i have seen almost all turbo setup over the net and magazine and they didn't teed off from the brake booster. i'm afraid to mess around with the brake booster and i don't think it's easy to find a big *** tee from where i live.

so i might tee my blitz BOV, vortech fmu and boost gauge to the stock fpr, will this cause any problems? i read so many times that it's good to tee off a maximum of 2 per vacuum source but what if i zip tie each connections tightly will that be ok? need your comments please.

There are lots of vacuum sources on the intake manifold. I wouldn't tee off too many from a small source, as it may delay the re-action of components. For fast Re-acting components, keep vacuum hoses short, and Tee off as little as possible.

How you purpose to do it will work, and it may just fine, but it's not an 'optimal' way to set it up.
