yea i was just gonna ask, would that be the best source for the vaccum mani sinec its the most accurate measure of the PSI actaully going into my engine? It'd give an acurate reading for both my boost gauge and my wastegate, right?

And the manual i'm gonna get it will have a diagram right?

^ thats what i've heard, but it seems like hte IM is the closest thing to the engine, which will give me the most accurate PSI reading since the air has already traveled through the charge pipin and intercooler, so any PSI that was lost wont be counted.

Anyone else help me out with anything?

You pretty much got it right.

Brake booster line feeds directly off the IM, so at the same time so does the vacuum block. They give great readings, I'm very happy with mine and it cleans things up a lot.

If i dont go downstate to Tony's (Forty's) tuner, i think i'm going to go to http://www.commercialtruck.net/dyno.htm

Look legit to you guys? The only reason i would go is because its closer (by atleast 3 hours)

also, i'd REALLY like to know how everybody ran their charge piping. I know everyone says "be creative with it", i but i for real dont see how to do it. Pictures would be sick, and also any other of you turbo guys that can help with "which line goes where" on page 3, thatd be awesome.

This is NOT a T25 turbo. It's an IHI VJ11...a mazda turbocharger.
