no boost
All the gaskets were bown out of the exhaust on my 87 tII. So the plan was to replace the gaskets, add a 3" downpipe FCD and turbo timer. While the turbo was out I ported the waste gate and repaired a crack in the manifold. Ok so I got the car back together yesterday after waiting for my downpipe for three weeks. It still is not here but I needed the car so I ended puting the thing back together without the pipe timer or FCD. I also removed the air pump and ACV. Well it all went back together nice but now I have no boost. The only thing that I was not sure about was the line going to the BOV and the line going to the boost sensor. where should these go after removing the ACV? and what should I do with the thre vac lines that used to go to the ACV? I have them pluged now but this does not seem to be the ticket. Hope you guys have some answers for me. Thanks...

There's a vacuum fitting that's immediately right above the ACV right under the BAC valve.  This fitting would normally just go into the stock BOV, but you can gank it and "T" into it for the boost sensor.  Hint, run the straight end of the "T" into the BOV, but use the 90° end to go into the boost sensor.
