Are these connections correct?

Hi Gang,
I'm troubleshooting an upgraded 88 TII and have a question about how some of the aftermarket stuff is hooked up.

There is an SX Performance 15404 FPR that has the Vacuum/Boost reference connected to the nipple on the ACV where the Pressure Sensor used to be. Is that the best place for it?

Secondly, the setup has a Microtech LTX12. The vacuum line from the ECU is about 6ft long and goes from the passenger side of center console, under the dash to the driver side, through the firewall, across from the driver side back to the passenger side and connects to the nipple on the UIM just below the BAC outlet. Is that the best place?

Thanks for your learned opinion!

Those are the original connection points for the boost sensor and bypass valve/BOV, so they'll both see vacuum/boost.
