Is that the port that is NOT a vacuum port in order to equalize pressure for the fuel injector air bleeds and oil injector tops?

Those two places should have the non vacuum source off the throttle body.

Is the black phenolic spacer in between the UIM and TB on correctly?
Backwards?
Maybe the fact that you're mix and matching the UIM and TB messed it up?

Yeah, normally the top and bottom fittings are post-TB or see vacuum.
The middle one is not.

the arrow on the spacer is poiting towards the intake manifold.
i think im using a s4 spacer as well.
i heard the bottom port was the best one for fpr and haltech map sensor but if it doesnt work which other one can i use that gives a clean signal?
