Default vacuum line routing

hey everyone iam installing a turbo kit soon and iam just trying to figure out my vacuum lines. I have the vacuum manifold from dezod and i need to know what vacuum line i need to use for the input on it, also i need to know how to hook up my manual boost controller on a external wastegate. dont worry iam getting a professional tune and the tuner is going to make sure all the vacuum lines are right before anything but iam just saving myself some money buy installing it all myself i know i can do it iam just a little confused on the vacuum lines any help would be greatly appreciated thanks everyone.

There's a line that comes from the throttle body and runs along the stock intake. That's the line that I tapped into and ran in-line with my vacuum manifold. From there I just broke it off with one to the boost controller (and then in the same line from the boost controller to the bottom wastegate port), one to the blow-off valve, one to the boost gauge, and one to the EMS. However, sometimes you need to give the EMS a stable source of it's own, such as tapping into the brake booster.

Good luck!!

When you pick up the clutch, I can walk you through all of it. You can tak pictures if you like or whatever. I have hooked up many turbo kits in my day so I know what's optimal. If I were you, I'd spend the $40 and get a vacuum block. It makes things cleaner and easier.
