Vaccum???????
I am about to replace the bosch B.O.V with the synapse B.O.V.
The synapse BOV use two sources of vacuum I need to know where is the best source of vacuum is for the BOV is.
www.synapseengineering.com
a. You will need to locate a vacuum source that is directly connected
to the intake manifold after the throttle body. It is preferable that the
Synchronic BOV have its own vacuum source. If you need to tee the
vacuum source, please insure that the straight section of the tee is in
direct communication with the Synchronic BOV. See diagram below.
You will also want to make sure that the vacuum source to the BOV
is not shared with other pneumatic actuators such as wastegates,
EGR valves, etc.
b. Once you have plumbed a vacuum signal source near the
Synchronic BOV, you will tee the connection and connect both Ports
A (5) and B (6). Depending on the placement of the source port on
the intake manifold that you are using for vacuum, you may want
to plumb the hoses that go to Ports A (5) and B (6) as close to the
intake manifold as possible before connecting them together with a tee.
Please help me.

Apparently you have selected a blow off valve that is very sensitive, so in your case I would just drill a separate hole in the intake and use that for your source.
Attaching it to other sources that are shared can cause an accumulator effect on your B/O valve and change it's response time.
