Question 2008 SS/TC BOV install issue...

just installed a BOV on my 2008 ss, works great but I've lost about 5lbs of boost. I believe my issue is vacuum, anyone have any insight on which vacuum hose to tap in to? seems like one line doesn't have enough vacuum and the other pulls too much and I lose all power.

So did you relocate the MAF sensor and then re-tune for the relocated MAF??

Best vacuum line to tap into is the on that is direct into your intake manifold. its on the lower right side on the top.

Why do people waste money just to hear that sound?
