Don't do that. Sasha provides one in the downpipe.

Thanks jwick. You're always great at helping me with questions I have as well as everyone else on here. Really appreciate it guys.:tup::tup:

The wastegates only need pressure, no vacuum, sam goes for Boost controllers. The driver side charge pipe has a bung on it for this already.

You have to drill/Tapp the manifold for the BOV. It only needs vacuum.

And yes, the downpipe comes with an O2 bung already welded in.

EDIT:

I should mention that the kit comes with two drill bits, pilot and final size as well as a 1/8" NPT tap and a 1/4" x 1/8" NPT hose barb. So you don't need to go out and get any of this stuff.

I'll be getting a vacuum block (VitTuned Vacuum Block) for blow off valve and boost gauge. Possibly 4bar map sensor if necessary. I gotta read up to see if the 4bar map sensor bypasses (tee's in) the stock map sensor or replaces it altogether.

EDIT: The 3/4 bar map sensor would just replace the stock map sensor. of course some tuning will have to be done to get it dialed in correctly. So yes. two 1/8 npt fittings for the blow off valve and boost gauge. waste gates and boost controller goes to the bung under the driver side charge pipe.

Whats that block for? just to clean it up ? Ill do a update later today too. Just have to wait and confirm some things.

instead of tapping the manifold for vacuum, you use the vacuum line off the brake booster. the vacuum block is just a tee with multiple vacuum ports. for instance, Jwick tapped his manifold twice, one for the BOV, and the other for the boost gauge. I'll just have to open two ports from the vacuum block to provide the vacuum source.

Oh **** that sounds nice, is it safe. I might want to get it. I have my bc and I will need the other line too.

Also what size fittings are you getting to use?

PongSanity 02-19-2016 11:19 AM
1/8 npt

Nothing wrong with a vacuum block.

hc_416 02-19-2016 01:05 PM
op update, so is it recommend to get?

PongSanity 02-19-2016 01:19 PM
personal opinion. its not necessary for purchase. just an alternative.
