hey im in the middle of bolting up a new turbo set up and on the car.

i have a question about a metal air pipe that comes round the engine and outlets itself next to the turbo..
now i understand that the actuater pipe hooks up to the turbo but then theres this pipe thats mentioned above thats to the left of the turbo,
i take it that was for the hi low boost solenoid, as the standard actuater has two pipes . . . . . one which im assuming connects to said pipe.
now that its redundant can i just take the rubber hose off it leaving it open ?????


i hope ive explained myself well enough here,
can anyone help with advice as i just need to make sure

I assume you're on about the one that is attached to the block near the timing belt cover? I've got hard metal pipes there that aren't connected to anything (Boost solenoid was removed) so you'll be fine to leave them as is.

Best pic I can find. The small black pipe coming up between the timing belt cover and power steering pipe?
