Hello everybody.

I was planning on buying a vap valvetronic exhaust for my completely nonactive f-type exhaust. I was already talking back and forth through email with vap but I just wanted to see if anybody could tell me where to get the vacuum source off of the engine. I have no problem doing the install myself I just like doing research ahead of time. I was reading the JLR document about fixing the old pump in the back by instead routing the vacuum source from engine but this required something in the document with a disclaimer about having the possibility to affect the "brake servos" if done improperly which I'd like to not risk if all possible. If I could get a general location of said place to tee-in the vacuum line or a picture that would awesome.

Thanks in advance everybody

 

Any recommendations about this? I also noticed the connection points for the valve lines are very different on the VAP vs Stock on the V6.

 

hey so I actually just ended up buying this dorman vacuum pump from autozone and a pump controller from AliExpress which worked perfect, I just wired both into the rear fuse box, and mounted both the controller and pump on a metal plate and there was already a hole in the wheel well for the plate to mount to, then I cut the lengths of vacuum line and routed it and it works great for me I can close valves before starting the car, I can post pics after my work shift. I had no pump or any valves to begin with.

 

Oh gotcha, no valves. It's actually funny because the related thread about longer exhaust lines popped up below this. I guess i need 3/16 in vacuum hoses.
