Default BOV routing

OK, so from my search I gather that the upper port of the BOV should be either run to the FPR, or the brake booster. I don't want the problem of the BOV not opening, so which should I run it to? Can someone PLEASE post a pic of where those vacuum lines are?

Any line coming off of the intake manifold will serve as a pressure source. You can T the BOV into the FPR line. Personally, I prefer to give each component it's own individual pressure source.

Agreed.

GE makes a vaccum box that once connected to an existing vaccum line will have 5 or six vaccum connections available. Although this isnt exactly "independent" vaccum. It will eliminate having to T into other vacumm lines.

I personaly dont like to get vaccum from lines that are being used by other components, FPR ect. Especially if the line that is being shared by both the BOV and FPR is to disconnect. Now you have 2 problems instead of one.

Its connected to your Fuel Rail, the fuel rail sits on your intake manifold.
