hi guys,
i'v taken away my efi pipe ( i fitted relocation kit )
and there is 1 small hose that i'm not sure what to do with ??
the hose in question plumbs into the efi pipe next to where you would have your D/V located ( pipework from turbo to TMIC ).
i'v searched but found nothing on this.

thanks in advance :)

"Leave it vented" how do i do this ? sounds silly but so was the answer i got. i dont want a random hose kicking around the engine bay doing nothing.

That is it tho you just unplug it from efi an unplug it from other end to, where you unplug it from jus leave open to vent..

I gather you still have hi'low pipes that run over cam cover???

venting to the atmosphere

@sparky87: hey mate, what guys here are tryna say is, you can get a piece of 'extension' vac line and make sure it's not blocked and venting to the air, like what i did. here's another shot of it. please note that this pipe comes from the actuator bleed/exhaust nipple. if it's blocked, it will make the actuator 'see' too much boost each time your turbo begins to spool and will keep opening the wastegate way too early - in essence, you will never be able to get any boost.

in my setup, i nicked the pipe on the side and put a bolt on the top to aid in preventing water/dirt going back into the line each time my engine gets a wash. if you want, you can also get a vac pipe that makes a u-loop to further point downward. this would be the best arrangement to keep dirt out.
