Default boost guage line question 2jzgte

do i connect the line be for the throttle body i have a extra port be for the TB opens and close so it will build pressure. or do i connect it to the manifold where all the vac stuff is?


the extra ports i are from my power steering vac lines because im now using a custom ps line.


thanks!

I would tee it from the FPR signal. One of the best places for your boost gauge for a true signal, but Im sure the manifold would work just as well. As for being infront of the butterfly's position, not too sure.

Isnt it highly recommended for it to be behind the throttle body?

Put it on the engine side of the tb butterfly. Just plug into a port on the intake manifold.

some of the ports right on top of the throttle body will not give you a good signal.
go from the manifold itself or T it off something directly from the manifold.
