Where does the brake booster hose go when you put 20v quads on a big port head. Or do I need to make a spot on the adapter manifold.

drill into a port on the manifold and tap a fitting into it.. i tapped 4 into mine to give it a good vaccume, but more so to act like a balance tube also.. even out the vaccume, just makes it easier to tune..

So it's better to get vacum for the break booster from each port?
Did you allso draw vacum from the actual quads in this set up or just block off the holes in the quads. For your vacum reading line not break booster line I mean.

you mean the MAP line? i drilled and tapped for both.. sperate fittings for the booster, and the smaller ones for the MAP line..

i used those little condom blankers for all of them bar 1.. used that for the fuel reg..

don't bother connecting a vaccume gauge... it will just bounce all over the place! ha ha

howzit run on manifold pressure matty?

doesnt the adaptronic let you run off the tps load points?

yeh it's only TPS http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif can run MAP also.. but i just don't have the pressure http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/smile.gif quads with heaps of portwork.. and soon to have cams.. not real good for manifold presure

I just had the idear of using the lines off the actual quads for vacum sensing. And the lines on the adapter manifold for the break booster. Is this a good idear. I'm assuming not seeing other don't do it?

what sorta adaptor do you have? cos the one i got only had 3mm fittings.. brake booster line is like a 5/16 or 3/8..

Techno toy tuning adapter with 3mm fittings. I was thinking that I could run these like you have. Then connect the line some how to the break booster line. Basicly like you have but use the existing niples rather than drilling in some new niples. Then use the ones on the quads for vacum sensing.

Many be I could put bigger niples in the existing holes
