That is the correct connection for the Boost Signal to the Raptor BOV. Good catch Tekwon

if you look at the Raptor, you will notice there are 2 threaded holes - one on the cap (furthest away from the mounting flange) and one "in the middle" (closer to the flange).
from your picture, it looks like you have it connected to the one closer to the flange.

you can use the bottom port as a boost-sensing hook up. this could help the valve open up quicker (vacuum pulling up and boost pushing up) but it is generally not needed/used.
your setup looks nice. what kind of exhaust are you running?

ok, I corrected the connection on the bov and test drove it this morning and I believe car feels more powerful. however the roads a wet so I don't know if it was losing traction but I noticed it overboosted to like 14 lbs..... what's ur take on this? also I the bov sound way different now. it sounds like a solid psssh instead of a psst pssst pssst pssst (fluttering release)..
