I prefer the PCV line next to the brake booster line on the back of the intake manifold, but it depends on whether or not you are running a vented catch can. I definitely prefer the vacuum block.

No catch can yet no boost guages either yet

Ryan P · 05-11-2014, 09:07 AM

I tapped the compressor housing which feeds the vacuum block.

The compressor hosing is only good for boost reference for boost control. For a boost gauge and bov you need to use ported vacuum from the intake manifold

What are guys using for vaccum block (brand) wise or does it really matter

Ryan P · 05-11-2014, 03:14 PM

Vibrant, it shouldn't really make a difference though. That particular brand just so happened to have a vacuum manifold on sale when I purchased it.

Ross · 05-11-2014, 10:52 PM

I typically just make them out of fuel rail stock when I need them.

Vacuum for the BOV can be sourced at the purge valve port under the IM (if you are deleting your purge valve).

Fa20club strikes again.... the EcuTek license I had purchased in November prior to parting out the kit was never purchased by Toni from EcuTek. It's registered to Fa20club but without a license.... I'm more than annoyed right now, the only advice EcuTek offers is to contact Toni. I have reached out to him but based on prior experiences I won't be hearing back. Who know's I might luck out but I'm not holding my breath, anyone else have any suggestions so that maybe EcuTek will light a fire under his ass or something?

Probably the best you can hope for is seeing if you can get EcuTek to offer you a license for a reduced cost from another tuner. I know @Visconti, @nelsmar, and @jamesm have good relationships with EcuTek.
