Right now I have all my vacuum lines tapped from the FPR port (boost guage, boost controller, BOV, FMU, and Wastegate. Everything is working fine,but I heard it was a lot better to limit two or three vacuum lines to a port. I want to have the BOV and the Boost Cont. off of the brake booster and leave the rest on the FPR.

1. Where is the prake booster located?

2. Is there another vacuum source I could use besides the brake booster? If so,where is it located?

3. Any info or pictures would be greatly appreciated, Thank you

I don't know about any other vaccume source but the brake booster is located behind the master cilinder (where u put in brake fluid). The booster is a big round object right behind the master cilinder. Good Luck.

You need to think about the functions and then group. I dont know if it makes a difference, but it does make sense. The brake booster should come off the back of the intake manifold and throught the firewall. It will be larger than the rest of the vac lines. The is a one way valve on the brake booster line, make sure you slip on the engine side of it. Trust me, if you don't your shit wont work right. This is how I have my stuff slip.
brake booster - BOV
throttle body vac - map sensor
wastegate, boost controller, gauge, and BTM off one
fuel pressure reg has its own
