Can someone tell me where this hose connects???

Ok its a vacuum (im guessing) hose that points strait up, right behind the turbo. It looks like the hose was melted off when my Pulsation Dampner turned flamethrower and the dumbshits who fixed it missed this one.

If checked the vacuum hose diagram in my FSM but i cant figure out which one it is.

Any help much appreciated.

I believe it goes up to that group of vaccum lines up to the left of it. Should be a rubber vaccum hose.

Edited the pic to show where.

It's for the twin-scroll system. It goes up to the vac rack and connects to the solenoid with the green plug.

hmmmmmmm. I really confused now. So what happens since its not connected? More importantly what has it been doing with my racing beat exhaust?

The twin-scroll system doesn't work. The turbo will be slower to spool at low revs (i.e. more lag), but peak power is unaffected.

Absolutely nothing.

That does make alot of sense. It does seem to lag a bit on spool up. And i do remember loooooonnnnnnnnngggggggggg ago watching the twin spool do its thing on the boost gauge. Well i guess i should check out the system and hook it back up.
