The BOV pulls vaccum to operate it ...

You need to pull your source from the intake manifold

can you tap the vaccum line on the fuel pressure regulator. thats the most accurate place to tap.

DO NOT pull from the FPR ....

On the Turbo II the vaccum source to the FPR isnt that great although it is good enough for the FPR if you tap something into it you will start having fuel issues in the change over form primary to secondary injectors which could cause lean problems...

Pull off an intake manifold source , That is the most accurate and non-detremeintal place to pull vaccum from ...
