BOV vacuum signal

[thinksnow]

I am installing the Turbo XS Type S BOV on my 2003 RX-1. Where is the best place to get the vacuum signal for the top of the BOV? I have seen some use the little nipples on the carb boots in between the carbs and the motor. The outside two are used on my sled. Can I get away with just using the inside two nipples or should I T into all of them?

Also, what size are those nipples and lines--1/8"????

Thanks,
Lance

Its best to tee all 4 together and then into the BOV.

If you T all 4 together, it keeps cylinder pressure even. This will greatly reduce throttle chop and flooding of engine. I would guess this is why you are adding it!

I installed the valve because it seemed that everyone on here was installing them. I am a follower not a leader.LOL

I heard that it was the thing to do and it is better for the turbo and throttle response at speed.

I took the time today and T'ed into all four nipples. Wow, what a pain in the butt! Getting way too many hoses and wires in my engine compartment.

No snow here in western ND to test how it works. Sled hasn't even touched snow yet this season. We are leaving on Wednesday for West Yellowstone for a week. I hope the sled runs or out comes the backup(Mtn Max 700).

Thanks for the replies.
