I have mine like slowhawk rec's...also goes into a golden eagle vacuum manifold, you can see all of my boost reference connections are hooked into that....you can also see the tee into the brake booster line. This line is excellent for a vacuum source, come directly out of the back of the intake manifold.

Its been that way for a long time now, way before the STS JL thing I was just proud to have kept the bumper support for added safety and to help spread it around to keeping youngins like you safe.

I use the stock PCV nipple on the intake manifold as a vac source for my boost gauge and surge valves. Seems to work great. As for the PCV, I'm venting my crank case to the atmosphere.
