Intake TB tube install help



I'm installing a throttle body tube on my s4 tII. I had to remove the engine lift and intercooler brace (pain in the ***), and the stock elbow. Now what do I do with the little metal line and valve thingy that is in the way? It's right below the sensor in the intake tube in the photo.

Thank you.

The PCV? You could just change how it mounts. A zip tie would work if you don't care how it looks, but I would probably make a little mount out of a small piece of sheet metal.

When I put my Greddy TB pipe on mine I just bent the little tab the PCV mounts too out of the way, it fits snug but it works great. I had my UIM off to put the Greddy piece on though.

Thanks for the info guys. I wasn't sure what exactly it was, so I figured I would ask before I mess with it. I'll get a brake line tool and make a nice bend pointing it out of the way.
