Doing a FMIC install, what to do with vac lines that used to go to top mount?
Ok I am doing a FMIC install. I had 2 vac lines running to the stock top mount, what should I do with those? Cap em or tap into my TB inlet and supply them that way? I was just wondering what most people do.
Thank You,
Jeremy

One goes to the AWS solenoid valve (causes the 3000rpm start) and the other goes to the ASV (increases idle speed when you operate the power steering). The AWS valve should be removed anyway, but the ASV line should really be connected back to the intake pre-TB. Easier would be just to stick a little filter on it, but this might cause problems with the unmetered air it sucks in suddenly upsetting idle mixtures.

So would the ASV be necessary if I no longer have power steering or A/C? I will probably hook it back up anyway I was just wondering how necessary it is if I have no P/S or A/C anymore. Thank You for the advice and input I really appreciate it.
