    You need to put a vacuum T where the line goes into the lim under the snout and just run the vacuum lines like it was a 98+.

    This is what the 97's vac lines look like


    This is what the 98+ looks like just as a reference.


    This is what mine looks like modified to give you a better idea.

    f it wasn't dark out I could get you some better pics.

    T the vac into the LIM by the about?

    If possible I would give the FPR it's own vac source.
