I have my set up running like this.

-wastegate/boost gauge running to the boost like infront of the throttle body soo im not getting any vacuum readings.

-Blow off valve straight to the vacuum/boost source after TB

-frp straight to vacuum/boost after TB

I was planning on changing it up to this setup, is this correct?

your explanation is really confusing compared to the pic. but it should be wastegate to boost ONLY, on hot pipe. FPR line on throttle body. boost/vacuum gauge, line on throttle body. bov, line on throttle body

i have a red top and i had the same setup at first. but my fpr was on the left and with the setup my bov would open under boost and close when it should be open. my set up now fpr and gauge top left, wastegate and bov top right, and bottom capped off and it works just fine for me even tho i kno its not recomenned to t off the fpr..

No, your first setup seems right except for the boost gauge reading only boost/ unless your gauge doesn't read vacuum too

I have mine like this.FPR and Boost gauge Teed off vaccum/boostBOV off vacuum/boostWastegate directly to boost source

Your BOV needs vacuum
