s5 intake with s4 engine vac problem?

I am trying to run a s5 na intake on my s4 na. I have been trying to use the vac diagrams but there are some things that I can't figure out. Like how to re route the bac and where I connect the vac spider. I will post pics tomorrow. Can anyone shed some light?

Im doing the same thing right now. I just used the small hose from the old hard line that went to the bac, and hooking it up straight to the air intake pipe. i hav eno clue what im gonna do fo rht erest of the stuff, but as of right now, i have a minor vacuum leak, so i am trying to trace that down first, before i worry about the other stuff.

Both the spider and input for the BAC attach to the small intake tube sticking out the bottom of the intake tube between the AFM and the throttle body.

What I did was use the hose that comes from the front of the motor to the bac, and reversed it onto the thermowax.

Then just ran a new hose from the front of the motor to the bac.

I should have been more clear, I am looking for a picture of the upper and lower intake mani because I still can't figure some of the vac hoses out like the fuel injector air bleeds and some small others. Icermark you have answered my original question and made it even more simple for me thx man.

all the air bleeds (Fuel injectors and oil injectors) all feed to that line on the intake tube.
