Could be a fun item to hook up additional gauges & sensors.
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

What caught my attention about this TB boost adapter was the sentence about aftermarket BOV "Mechanical BOV's should have a dedicated vacuum line with no tees".
My Hot Pipe kit that is coming to me this week Will have a Tial BOV and since this has two direct fittings I'd use the other for a boost Guage.

If memory serves me correctly its 5/16's. I believe on 2013's and up the hose is different and do not know. But on my 11 it's printed right on the hose.
