To elaborate -

red - to under dash ventilation system/vac canister

green - to aftermarket boost gauge and/or blow off valve

yellow - to distributor vacuum advance

orange - to fuel pressure regulator

purple - capped off

blue - capped off

 

If I'm correct then you would not have a vacuum source to the cruise control and charcoal filter among a few other things (intake sensors, etc). Obviously this would be for a car that doesn't need to go through emissions.

What exactly is the black can next to the power steering reservoir, is it needed?

 

Dan

YES. It is your oil separator, that pulls from your crankcase and relieves pressure. DO NOT listen to anyone that tells you to get rid of this, or suggests those horrid Krank Vents.

 

 

EDIT: My oil catch can has been moved there. Sorry, wrong can.

The can behind the power steering fluid can is a vacuum storage can which you can leave in line with your HVAC hose and you can move the can if you like but I'd highly recommend you retain that check valve in hose so that boost pressure doesn't enter into your HVAC actuators and heater valve. The can is there so things can still happen under boost and notice it says its for the automatic air conditioner.

awsome man thanks but what about the two vaccum lines off the wastegate actuator

 

I'd have to look at it to remember, but, one goes to the tb or stock intake tube if you still have it, the other goes to the sensor on the air can, and the other is left open.

 

I don't recall which goes where, like I said, less I was looking at it...lol And I haven't looked at one in over a year.

 

And dale...I spot my injectors :P
