Need Help Understanding Routing of Hoses
Art Skills
Everything I have colored in I (think) I have an understanding on. Tell me if it is wrong please. What I am for sure having trouble with is the boost reference on the fuel pressure regulator. And the top of the blow off valve? The other two ports that are shaded in black are I think a EVAP port off the intake and a port coming off of the Holly throttle body. Thank you in advance.

Wastegate to compressor cover is correct, just make sure you have the ports correct on the wastegate as the manufacturer intends. Double check these connections before going WOT. I am very thorough and still missed a bottom port on my wastegate which basically made all the boost when I went WOT.
Both valve covers should go to the catch can, the intake manifold should not go to the can as it would be pressurized under boost. Some people run a line from the catch can to the intake of the turbo so it pulls vacuum and evacuates crankcase vapors. I don't like that because it introduces oil into the piping, intercooler, intake manifold, etc.. You could run it to the intake manifold, but it would need a check valve so under boost it doesn't pressurize the catch can and valve covers. You would blow out seals pretty quick without a check valve
FPR and BOV both need a vacuum source after the throttle body, so somewhere on the intake manifold

For compressor to waste gate am I getting confused or is there also a hole on the top of the waste gate I might be getting it confused with the BOV.
And ok I have to run a check valve on the catch can to the intake got ya.
Can I run a T from the blow off valve and fuel pressure regulator?

it will work if there are check valves but not the best way to do it. Connect both covers together then get a clean side separator that mounds into the oil filler cap to go to catch can. For you cap off the intake. and the out port on can goes before turbo. the boost line is fine on wastegate.

Forgot to tell you I saw your build. Wow
