You just need to run a line from after the throttle body to the BOV.

By stating that you go just after the throttle body he meant that you can use just about any line coming off of the intake manifold.
For example: Fuel pressure regulator line Cruise Control line I personally tee'd into the FPR line and left the CC for the wastegate can

any vacuum source off the intake mani should do. you can use the FPR, cruise control, or even the power brake line as llong as its between the check valve and the intake.

yeah a couple people use the brake line and run a block with other T's on them...like this...
 I personally used the FPR for my boost gauge and a hose on the back of the IM for my BOV...  imp:" class="inlineimg" />
