hey umm, im gonna be an *** and say that before you reply to someones post you should read it.

where is a good place to attach the bov vacuum to give it its own source though? would the brake booster count as its own source? just heard that it may not function too well without its own. thanks, keep the replies coming(as long as they are thought through *cough*"cialz "*cough*).

HAHA you've got to learn how to read cialz. You do not even have a honda/acura and you visit these boards so much. Thought you would know better.

Anyways. I am not sure where I tapped it too. I do have everything tapped of at one place. My BOV, boost gauge, WG and FPR. Not that safe but I am a lazy ***. If anything comes loose, everything else will not work.

vacuum is vaccum....but personally I like to have it tap after the BOV, to be able to get an acurate reading of the amount of pressure GOING into the head....

since you lose some pressure after the compressor outlet and to the TB..IC pressure drop and etc...

I plugged up the hole in the compressor housing....
