Found strange pills?

I had done the silicone hose conversion some time back. And had read about the confusion on how many pills are there in a 2ng gen TII 91. For some reason I kept all of my old hoses. So I went looking at all of them. I found two pills I was not expecting.

The one I found is large. The way it is shaped I think it is the 90° one that is where the factory BOV is. Does that look right?


The small one I am not sure about. If you notice in the pictures you can see the marks left by OEM spring clamps. From searching forum it seems like that was the one that went from the compressor outlet that went into that small metal vacuum line that surrounds the compressor. So does that seem right? I am running a manual boost controler. should I insert that pill into my boost controler lines?



Pills -
1. In the boost sensor line.
2. From the compressor to the metal vacuum line.
3. The big one with the factory BOV.

Does that sound right. Just want to make sure?

When you insert them into the hose they have a very snug fit and are not going anywhere. They are there to dampen the boost or vacuum pulses that flow through the hoses.

So does anybody know where these things go?
