power brake booster line?
I have an 87 Turbo II, I was wondering where the power brake booster line goes to?
It comes out of the Booster and goes to a hard line then it runs along the fire wall, and then i'm not sure where from there... any help?

The TII lower has a threaded port on the rear runner where a little bent pipe bolts on with a banjo bolt. That's the location of the brake booster line. Similar to the NA.

Really I just need to know where is an acceptable vacuum source. I Bought a 3ft length of power brake booster line so I can re-route...
(I mounted my FPR in the path of the old hard line because that was the only place I could fit it...
So I have to remount the hard line up a little higher above the firewall.)

The booster "nipple" is actually a large pipe coming off the lower (I guess Jspec only) or upper (apparently North American) manifold. It's a pipe of about a 3/8" diameter which connects to a threaded hole in the manifold via a banjo bolt. It is the only threaded hole in that are of the manifold.
You can see what it looks like in the picture below. It is directly above the downpipe and is the black pipe connected to the lower intake with the silver clamp and S shaped hose connectd to it. This is an NA manifold so yours will be a bit different but the pipe looks very similar. I don't have a picture of a TII.
