real quick ?? about MBC

i saw the how too for halman's MBC https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...&highlight=MBC

but my question is for the install from the BOV and the intake manifold if i already have a T fitting inbetween the BOV and intake manifold for a boost gauge...

so where should i put the T clap for the MBC? before or after the T fitting for the boost gauge? ... or should i put my Boost gauge somewhere esle?

Thanks,
Vinny

I installed by boost gauge to the boost line to the right of the oil dipstick that comes of the intake manifold, some people do it to the line to the left of the oil dipstick. Not sure if it matters, if one way is better then let me know! My MBC is on the T-fitting between BOV and intake....

It's really a matter of preference keeping in mind a few factors:

1) The lower the vacuum line internal volume (length), the better. More volume to fill with pressure means slower boost response and less crisp boost readings.

2) The more fittings you have in a line, the more chances there are for leaks to develop and connections to break.

3) If the manifold is your boost source, locating boost sensors and BCs close to the manifold is a good idea.

Just some thoughts...
