Vacuum source for w/g with fmic - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Checking my vacuum lines and I had the bov t'd off with the wastegate so I took the t out since I know your not supposed to have the bov line t'd. My fmic piping doesnt have a nipple for a pressure source to the wastegate so I was running it t'd off my fpr and boost gauge line. Is it okay there or should I drill and tap a nipple into my turbo outlet or i/c piping for the line?

I'd put a nipple to the hot pipe and run the wg to that.

Then run a T from the fpr for the bov.

bov is on its own line now, from the large nipple on the throttle body like its supposed to be with no t's Just curious about the w/g line since with my boost controller turned off it runs around 8psi which I thought the factory wastegate was set at 6?
