How do you all hook up your profec Bs?

Hi,
I am trying out different ways to hook up my ebc, and wondering who has most success with a certain way, or is it all the same? My first setup was:
Vacuum line from profec unit teed off of FPR along with boost gauge
Input line hooked to turbo compressor housing
Output line to the wastegate

I tried a second setup, but i'm not sure if it's better or not:
Vacuum line from unit T'eed off Input Line to Turbo compressor housing (to read boost pressure at same time, no need for unit to read vacuum)
Output line left the same at wastegate.

I figured the second configuration runs less vacuum line from the unit (coming from driverside firewall straight to near turbo compressor housing, as opposed to going around the motor to near the throttlebody).

Which do u guys think is better? All opinions and ideas appreciated. Thanks

Man, I did this on a RB25DET like 2 years ago...it's been a while.

Lemme see, if I remember, the first one sounds like what the instructions that came with it said. Don't really worry about the extra travel the vacuum lines make, the difference is so minute it won't be detectable.

Do you have a stock actuator or do you have an aftermarket wastegate?
