Default vacuum distributor

While I was at the tuner we were having some leaning out issues and they posed the question and concern that maybe because I have everything t'ed off of one line that the FPR is losing vacuum and not getting enough fuel up top to support 14+ pounds of boost.
They told me to look into getting a vacuum distributor that has check valves and separate chambers so that no single component can take away from another. I was just wondering if this was a decent product to look into or if I should just look into rerouting my vacuum lines. Thanks for looking.

The FPR builds max fuel pressure with no vac. So having low source vac at the FPR can't be the reason the car is leaning out.

^ I thought that myself but they seemed to think it could be from that. I looked and I am not even sure it is hooked up to that vacuum port.

I picked up a 5 outlet vacuum fitting from the local parts house for under 3 dollars. Four different vacuum needs filled with one fitting. It is not a manifold with one way valves.

For the record, I never had any problems with lack of vacuum to the FPR, Blowoff valve, vacuum/boost gauge, and MAP sensor all on the same vacuum source.

I suggest you split the vacuum/boost needs between two vacuum/boost sources on the intake manifold. That is what I am currently doing.

IMHO, Something else is probably causing your problem.
