Folks with FI and Vacuum modulated trannies inside, please
Anyone running 10 PSI or more? If so, what type of vacuum line are you using from the tranny to your vacuum source for the tranny modulator? the clear hose with the spring inside? I'm at 11 PSI and am having the vac mod installed today and am concerned that even with the bypass valve (that TransGo supplies) installed that the extra pressure may burst/split the clear plastic vacuum line. The install instructions mention that at 10 PSI or above that "pressure hose" should be used. Anyone with hands-on experience?

I was running it on the Radix at 9-10 psi and no issues. On the Radix, though, it connects to the intake before the compressor so it only sees vacuum. Make sure you have that inline check valve if yours installs somewhere else with the Whipple.
