This is on an FC right?



I'd just splice into the vacuum line coming off where the LIM/UIM meet where it goes to the BOV and pressure sensor.

shouldnt really tee into the pressure sensor line.



Generally anywhere after the TB is good, there are a bunch of nipples on the back of the UIM that if you did the rats nest removal you should have at least 2 or so open, use one of those.

thats the one dramon is talking about.



like i said, i normally dont like to tee into the pressure sensor line, figure it likes its own source.



plenty of people use that one tho, but remember to get a tee.
