jaytech intake manifold and vacuum Q's

I believe the trick is to drill and tap a NPT to the manifold itself.

Stop jacking threads...

At idle, it should be under 10inHg.
During driving, it should fluctuate.
If boosting, it should not go over your max boost level.

I do that cuz I notice that a lot of people get yelled at for starting threads. But you're right, that was a bit of a long shot. Sorry.
