Brake booster line.

Have fun - just don't do this in your neighbourhood unless your neighbours don't mind a fog/smoke show.

You could also try the engine mount control vacuum line right behind the intake manifold.

I'd only do it annually at most.

I don't know where the brake booster line is on the TSX - I used that line on my Integra when I had it. Do you have a Helm's manual?

Hey, looks like the 2006 service manuals are out finally! There were only 04-05 ones for a long time. The 2004-2006 one only shows up if you search for "all documents" (not service manuals) on the search page though for some reason.
