I was just wondering what line i connect to my BOV. Do i just connect it to a vacuum line? I have a 1/4" or 3/8" brass 90 that's coming out of the s/c housing. Am i supposed to connect a line from this to the BOV, or is that fitting for the FMU? Please help, thanks.

Is it a Vortech? Anyways my vacuum line that comes out of the bypass valve goes into my intake where the FPR is tapped in. I have it connected to the other nipple beside that one for the FPR and from that T'd my boost gauge from it as well.

Hmmm...I don't know anything about the Paxton's. On the Vortech there is a discharge tube and one tube for my PP only. The discharge tube has the nipple for the bypass and the bypass has a nipple for vacuum/boost line.

Yes the BOV/bypass valve needs vaccum. You can get it from the compressor housing itself, or intake. It doesnt matter.
