Default Another Alky question

I have scanned thru Cajundude instruction but did not see anyhow the Alky kit can detect 4 lbs of boost?
Thanks,

It comes with a MAP sensor.

It also has a PAC controller box that allows you to dial in the "turn on" level.

Yes, I know it got the MAP sensor but where it hook up to get the boost level?
the instruction is only telling green wire, etc ... but did not tell what is that green wire, etc ... All I saw was + and - wires.

Thanks,

The MAP sensor from the kit connects to your vacuum line from the engine. The sensor can read your boost level just like a boost gauge. The sensor then sends the signal to the PAC which controls the alky pump. (more or less)

That what I thought as well but I may have skipped that or so but did not find it on Cajundude's instruction
