lower charge pipe & MAP wire Q's
I am hoping that I can make one thread and get the two answers I am looking for;
Before anyone says it, I did a couple advanced searches, and came up with zilch.
I am at work, my car is nowhere near by, and I was hoping to take car of this today on my break(s);
1) I want to do a boost leak test to my lower charge pipe post-nozzle install;
Can anyone tell me the size of the lower charge pipe hose ends?
(I am only going to test the lower charge pipe)
intercooler side & throttlebody side??
2) I am going to use a progressive controller that gets a signal from the MAP;
Can someone please tell me which wire it is that I need to tap into?
(the wire colour/identifier from our factory engine wiring harness; there are three wires; I was going to tap into the MAP on the intake)
I thank anyone in advance who can help me out!

I was really hoping to have gotten a quick reply yesterday, and chased down all the parts I needed to make a leak tester for the cold pipe at lunch;
I actually saw something like 35 views before I made my comment (post #2).
Ok, something came up last night, so I brought my spare lower charge pipe to work today, the ID (for anyone looking for this in the future) is:
Intercooler side: 2.5"
Throtlebody side: 2.75"
I've identified my proper instructions based off the wire colours from the progressive controller, here is the PDF;
http://www.alcohol-injection.com/ins...02%20vers1.pdf
Page #10 shows how to wire it.
If I am to be correct, I am guessing that the green MAP/MAFF signal wire needs to get tapped into the light green wire (pin #3) for the plug - does this sound correct?

I am guessing that was an attempt at sarcasm (correct me if I was wrong).
The instructions only say "MAP/MAFF";
I asked because I am guessing that pins #1 is for the incoming (full) voltage;
I am also guessing that wire #2 is a "check" or referance to verify to the ecm that the MAP is functioning correct - but I do not quite understand wholly how our MAP sensors work - I would think it should be voltage in & resisted voltage out ~ depending on the observed vacuum/pressure...
