Default BOV vacuum line install

Can someone post a pic of which exact vacuum line to hook up the line running to the BOV? Im not a car expert, so when people say "vacuum line", I have no clue where it is. Any help is appreciated.

I dont have a pic, but I would say that any vacume port off of your intake manifold should work. What kind of motor? I just used the port that my cruise control ran off of. When I removed the cruise control.

just T off any vacuum line off of the intake manifold. on a gsr there is a vacuum line coming out of the back center of it. i had a funny pic of this a while ago. in fact i think i'll look for it now.

muhaha. i found it....

i'm assuming this is line your talking about. there should be a diagram on the underside of the hood of your car that shows the vacuum sources off of the intake manifold.

you can use any vacuum line coming off of the intake manifold. An easy one would be the fuel pressure regulator

i used that for my boost controller (greddy profec b spec 2), and I still need my BOV and boost gauge put somewhere. I searched and found T'ing too many times is no good and I'd like to avoid getting a multi port thing, but If I have to I will. Say I were to get one, where would I run that from? In the mean time I'll continue searching..

Just buy a Golden Eagle vac manifold, their like $35 shipped. You tap into your brake booster line for vacuum, and the mani has about 6 ports.

Golden eagle makes a vacuum manifold for multiple vacuum sources. I think its around 35 bucks. I would think you could just run that off of a larger vaccum source like your brake booster line or maybe where your pcv hose runs into the manifold, but im not sure on that. I plan to just use multiple t's. I have a Profec B, boost gauge and BOV i will be running as well

When researching vacuum lines I came across a thread that asked about the line being too long from the wastegate. The response was "the length of the line isnt wat will lessen vacuum but more too many T fittings" err somethin to that extent..
