do those lines go to the ignitor ( the thing with the plug on top of it) if so, it looks as though those two lines with the bolts in them are for the pressure solenoid that are mounted with the ignitor that is on the left side above the Fuel Filter.

just tee the boost gauge into the fuel pressure regulator vacuum line. its the best place IMO.

Those are for the standard boost control setup. Ditch it. I source off a tee in my FPR feed line on the back of the mani.

Looks like you have a lot of unneeded stuff on there. If you want me to swing by and give you a hand ever, hit me up. I live in Carrollton.

The one that is hooked up is a vacuum/boost source. The capped one returns to the waste gate.

Again, I am more than willing to stop by and take a few hours and reroute your stuff for you bro.
