Message	The BOV or recirc needs a pressure source from after the TBs to tell it when to open. Ideally, this source would be DIRECTLY after the TBs, correct? As of now, I have a lot of hose plumbed to the balance tube for each recirc. Would it be a better idea to adapt a vacuum fitting to each EGR port for the recirc pressure source? What sort of difference might I notice when switching from about 7' of hose (total for both) to only a few inches and direct pressure after the TB from the EGR port? -Andrew '90 Aztec Red NA > TT
