Well, i thought about that ... but somewhere in my tens of thousands of post surfings I remember reading somthing about that line not being a very good vacuum.

Then when I was seasrching for this anwser last nite before I posted I came across this pic;

He has the BOV lines T'ed all over .. so that made me a little more confused.

Well I will give the stock one a shot then ... thx.

Dunno where you got that. It works fine for the stock BOV...

The pressure sensor takes it's signal from a nipple on the ACV. If you remove the ACV you need to tee the pressure sensor line into the BOV line. That's the tee you see in that picture. The other tee's probably an aftermarket boost gauge. That's how I have mine.
