Where do I find the Vacuum Lines to the Stock BOV's using Efini Y-Pipe and HKS Intake

I have an HKS intake, and I have the stock BOV's. I need a vacuum line to run from the top of each BOV to wherever they belong. I also have an Efini Y-pipe, so I am a bit lost on where I put the vacuum lines from the blow off valves... any ideas? or diagrams that could show me?

Thanks

I plug mine up to the nipples on the pass side of the UIM. One nipple to the CRV and the other nipple to the BOV.
You only need to tap into the uim so you can use any nipple on the UIM that is not spoken for.

Alright, I have the BOV in the rear (closest to the firewall) running a vac line to somewhere under the UIM. I have the other BOV in the front, with no line on it, and i Have a Vac line nipple available on the UIM and the Y-Pipe. Hope that's clear enough, I need to know if they are setup correctly, if it I should connect the front BOV to the UIM nipple, it's a prett long stretch.

The nipples on the passenger side...I'm pretty sure the rearmost one is used for boost gauges, but I guess it's possible to plug it into other things. Just compare the stock setup and figure out where they go, then do the same. You need vacuum to get your BOV's to work right, so maybe this method is workable...
