Wheres the best spot to tap into the vacume line for the bov??

I'm using the line going to the fuel pressure reg, just tapped into it for my boost gauge tee'd off to the bov also. I think that's how most are doing it.

I'm putting a threaded vacuum barb coming out of the non used vacuum hole on the driver side instead of plugging it. It's a 1/4 NPT thread.

Im learning about my aem true boost controller...should I take the extra steps and hook up the scramble boost? Im assuming thay scramble boost is used like a nitrous button...use. low boost to get you off the line, flip the switch to ingage your max boost settings...am I close on this one lol

Which hole are you talking about?

Where the factory vacuum line goes from the valve cover to the intake. I'm running breathers on the valve covers so instead of plugging the whole on the intake I tapped it and am just going to use it as a boost source.

As far as the boost controller I think you can set it up to bleed off boost automatically at low rpm, but the switch wouldn't be used for that. Also It's not going to build full boost till about 3000 rpm anyways.
