I imagine you want the arrow to point towards the map sensor, as you want it to sense boost. But i\'ll just check for you...

surely map sensor should have a 2 way filter only! As by the nature of what it does it needs to read both manifold vacuum and boost to operate correctly.

It\'s a filter not a valve.... but the arrow should point towards the MAP sensor..
