if its just hooked up to boost,ie before TB, its doing this anyway right?
just want to make sure i hook it up right
You connect the FPR reference hose to the manifold plenum (i.e. after the throttle body)...

yes, when at vacuum the rail pressure will drop, and when at boost the rail pressure increases, that's ok...

the reference causes the FPR to vary pressure such that the pressure across any injector remains constant as boost/vacuum varies, so your IFR table can be flat across;

( the reference hose adds MAP to the base rail pressure, this is what the top of the injector sees; the bottom of the injector sees MAP; so the MAP at the top cancels out the MAP at the bottom, keeping the pressure across the injector constant and predictable, so the IFR table needs only one value in all cells ).
