Hi All,

I realize this question has been asked a million times but not so many answers.
I'm currently running a standard intake manifold on my b16A2 turbo.
Has anyone got a definitive photo of were they connected there vacuum hose for there dump valve?
cheers

It doesn't matter where it's connected as long as it's between the throttle body and head. As in when you close the throttle the engine sucks the air out of the inlet manifold creating vacuum. This vacuum opens the dump valve. The exact fitting on the inlet manifold doesn't matter. I have my boost gauge running off the small rear port that would be the charcoal canister/purge valve line and my dump valve and boost solenoid t'd off the port that would be for the pcv.
 
Hello mate, thanks for the response. do you happen to have a pic showing your set up?
