They are loud and vibrate alot. Look at the brake suppliers like master power to buy one. I would rather tap the intake runners, all 8 of them. run that to a common plenum, there you can tap off for brakes and PCV, etc. Besides, drilling and tapping the manifold in 1/4"npt for the fittings, and installing the, pneumatic log fitting, and full day of bending and flaring stainless hardlines in 5/16" would be alot more fun. And it looks cool too. The hum of the electric vac pumps detracts from my aesthetic experience with the sidepipes.
