Can someone with the kit post which hoses exactly they are using for boost? Pics if possible.

With my Synapse BOV, I need a vacuum, a boost, and boost only from the wastegate. Since many may have noticed that I know nothing about FI, any kind of help is greatly appreciated.
I have the synapse BOV. I'm only using the two vacuum boost lines. I t'd into the FPR and then used another T to split the lines and plugged them into the Synapase. Once I get my car tuned I'm going to be taking it over to Synapse and dyno it. I'll check with them to see if I need to run a 3rd line to the boost only I think I should since I'll be at 10psi and they recommend using it for anything over 7psi.

Above 10PSi is when it makes a BIG difference, but to have the full benefit of the Synapse BOV for instant open/close, you want that third line connected as well.

I just have to figure out how to get the boxes out of my car..

I'm gonna be sending the header, turbo housing, and downpipe to Swaintech for ceramic coating. I'll hate the 3-week turnaround, but the ceramic coating should help keep the underhood temps down & I just didn't like the BBQ grill paint Greddy used.

So is the eManage Ultimate load-based? Does it use the OEM MAP sensor to adjust fuel?

Great write up, I got it all printed and will be using it as a helper guide when I install my kit.


I didn't think I would be able to fit the Greddy turbo boxes in the S when I went to pick them up. The boxes just barely fit in the passenger side. I had to push down just a little to get the top to close

You can tap the intercooler pipe for a boost only source, it only takes a couple of minutes.

I tapped into the Fuel Pressure regulator line, basically goes from the Fuel rail area to the top of the manifold, I also tapped into this line for the Boost Gauge
