Good source for vacuum

I have done some search and did not see the answer i was looking for.. I already pulled out all my emmision components and blocked them off. Im running T04B, E6K, boost controller, HKS standard wastegate, Blitz BOV, boost gauge,and SX FPR...

Now i need to find a good vaccum source for all this parts. I know there are vacuum sources on both sides of the upper plenum but i was also told that i can use the nipple above the BACvalve. This is the one that runs diagonally and points towards the firewall. Another source i was told will be the small nipple below the BACvalve right where it meets with the LIM.

Here is what i am planning to do.. And pls correct me if i am wrong or if this will not work..

I am going to use the upper vac source above the BACvalve for my Blitz BOV and EVC4 (HKS says on the manual not to use the same vac source for FPR).

And MAP, boost gauge, and FPR on the smaller nipple below the BAC valve.. If i have all this things Teed off together will it still supply the same pressure??????...

Do you guys think this will work or i really have to use the ones on the upper plenum??..if so which ones should i use???..

Yes i did SEARCH but non of them talked about using the ones near the BAC VALVE..Thanks!..FCTURBO2

There are a million vacuum nipples all over the intake. Pick one. Also, you can T into the boost sensor line.
