Default zex dry kit install

ok so a buddy of mine purchased a brand new zex dry kit for his eg hatch with a sir2 swap, i hadnt done one in a while, i searched this site and google looking for a good "diy or how to" on dry kits but havent found anything good, and what i did find was old threads where pics are no longer there.. i have installed quite a few wet kits but not a dry kit.. basically just looking for help or pics of exactly where the two vacuum hoses that run off the zex box hook up to..

so far ive mounted 10lb bottle in the hatch
mounted the zex control box
wired up arming switch
ran line from bottle to zex box
tapped the nozzle into the intake using the 55 shot jet
now all i have left is the two vacuum hoses
i have one going to vacuum on top of the fuel pressure regulator
and the second one going to the intake mani where the fpr hose would normally run to.. have i done those correct? or did i put them in the wrong spot any help is appreciated


any comments saying shoulda used wet kit instead of dry arent neccessary thanks honda tech

The brand new kit comes with instructions. And yes it seems that you have everything correct except for the white wire to the tps.

Change the plugs too. I would take the car to a tuner since you said it has a chipped p28. Who knows what the timming is. I would run a stock ecu and use the nos till the car is tunned correctly.

hmm what do u mean i did the white wire to the tps wrong. it said instructions to run a wire to the tps.. black red and white wire.. red is power black is ground, and white was to the tps i believe.. and yeah i installed colder plugs, and already told the guy he shouldnt spray til it was tuned..

all i really wanted to know is if i ran the two vacuum hoses right
