1987 Sport - Where does this hose go?

I just got this car for my girlfriend, and I'm not familiar enough with the 86-88s to know where this vaccuum hose under the auxillary intake port actuators connects to. Can anyone tell me? Thanks.

I never owen an 86-88 N/A but that looks like the 6 port actuator hose, check for a nipple under the actuator valve, I could be wrong......

It's the 5th and 6th port actuator nipple. The hose you see connected to it should be connected to the split-air pipe on the catalytic converter. It uses backpressure from the cat to open the additional intake ports at about 3800 RPM.

Where it's connected to in that picture, I have no idea. Mine's connected to the air-pump dump hose that it's the bottom-right of your picture.
