Pressure sensor help

Just a few questions regarding the pressure sensor, sorry if its already been covered or is a dumb question. I have e N374 pressure sensor and it shows in the shop manual that it goes to the air bypass valve and also the air control valve. Well here's my question(s) I deleted the emissions so should i delete the split in the line where it goes to the ACV? And I'm also installing an aftermarket intake, so I'm assuming the air bypass vale is going to be deleted. Can I also delete the pressure sensor? Or am I running a new line off it to a new location? Can someone please help, thanks!

you need the pressure sensor, there should be a vacuum nipple on the UIM? where it connects to the LIM

Okay, I'll check that one out, clearly I'm going to have to find a place that sells silicon tubing before I do anything. So I should be able to run one hose straight to that vacuum nipple?

The pressure sensor and bypass valve/bov just need vacuum/boost sources. They don't have to come from the same place, but some spots are better than others since they connect to the intake runners for both rotors. Offhand, I think the one on the ACV is one of these.

So I could run a T connector between my BOV and pressure sensor and run them off the UIM nipple?

if you're deleting emissions the better source for the pressure sensor is either top or bottom port on the UIM front. it provides a more accurate signal for more accurate timing.
