Either MAP sensor will work to give you a reference. The one on top of the engine is a slightly better option IMO. Other than which MAP, you are correct, just go from the MAP adapter to the top of the TiAL. If you are planning to use that adaptor for another boost reference, then you will need to get a "T" so that you can feed both sources from the one reference. Alternatively, like I said, there is a port on the hot pipes, below the MAP sensor on the pipe. You would do the same as what would be done with the MAP adapter.

You need to connect your vac line to the map sensor on top on the intake manifold...the tip sensor is pre throttle body and won't see vacuum and you need vacuum reference and boost for bov

The boost helps hold the bov shut and the vacuum works against the spring pressure to open when you lift

I got it hooked up yesterday from the BOV to the sensor on the manifold. I checked my pipe and it doesn't have the port under the map sensor. But the BRA has an extra port I could use later to tie the wastegate.

Finally got them put on. I haven't done the wiring yet so I haven't heard them open. Total spent including installation $200 bucks. Crossed over to Mexico to get them put on plus the xpipe.

The muffler shop provided it when I told them I wanted an x Pipe before the cutouts. I'm not sure but I don't think it's stainless. Looks very different from the cutouts which are stainless.

Took advantage of having the flu and taking off work to get this put on.

Morning start with OBX catless downpipes and 3rd cat and resonator delete stock mufflers. Opened the cutout for a bit then closed it.

Wrapped downpipes, tested for a boost leak that Brad found in my logs and it turns out it was the weld for the wastegate mod it was pretty big. Got it all fixed up.

So I haven't pulled the trigger on getting transmission fluid, I'm a bit lost on the part of the transmission. Do I buy 11qts and a transmission flush?  I've been reading that the filter can't be changed. So do only buy like 6 since the average to come out I've reads about 5qts? Can I use amsoil for the transmission or use the Ford sanctioned Mercon LV?

Use the blue label amsoil signature series ATF LV. It's meets the Ford spec and is way better due to the fact that it's a TRUE synthetic that uses group IV base oil like the motor oil.

I would buy like 6 qts and drain the case and refill because due to the bypass valve being closed because the fluid temp is cool you won't be able to flush out the converter.

Just noticed there are as many Miller lite cans as amsoil bottles.....Take it easy if you are changing the tranny fluid as well...Or there could be a 12 pack on the table lol

Can I mix the 6 quarts of amsoil with whatever remains of factory oil?
