Meth install help

I have the base Devil's Own kit and I'm having a couple of issues. First, did anyone use the T-fitting that they supplied because it seems like its too big for the vacuum hose. The vacuum hose I'm tapping into is the one that connects to the top of the IM and runs above the SC...

The second problem I'm having is...I bought the mounting adapter planning on installing it into the coupler, but the K&N coupler does not even come close to having enough room. So where did everyone mount the nozzle? A picture would be greatly appreicated. Thanks

I drilled a hole into the intake to mount my nozzle. We've got it set up just for single stage at the moment, but I'm confused. Why are you tapping into the vacuum hose?

He has to tap it for the pressure switch so the pump starts to push the methanol to his intake. So just go to advanced and buy a vaccum fitting that will fit.

Second I'm going to buy a TB spacer from OTTP that has a 1/8 tap already for meth.

no one's came with directions? they're EXTREMELY straightforward to install I suppose that's why there is no how-to
