CA S5 Turbo LIM Question

On The S5 turbo LIM there are two water outlets. One goes to the turbo, Where does the other one go. I don't have any pictures of it when I tore the thing apart a couple of years ago and now I'm about ready to drop it back into the car. Does anyone have a picture

I figured it out and I know why I don't have any pictures of it during disassembly. It goes to the exhaust pipe. Now I'm trying to figure out where those two .5mm orifices go. I think one goes between the boost sensor and the mass airflow.

there is no MAF, just an AFM which has no vacuum lines attached to it. the orifice goes to the pressure sensor about 2 inches away from the sensor in the line.

One is the pressure sensor. I've heard of them being in the line between the compressor housing and wastegate. Don't know if it's correct to have it there or not.

The fSM Identifies two orifices, but doesn't really make it clear where they go. I got the one that goes to the boost sensor and the FSM also shows one where the big round thing plugs into the back of the TID and they both have the same part number, but the one at the TID needs to be a lot bigger.

there is a check valve to the TID but i never never seen a pressure sensor orifice in any of those lines to the TID. it is an aluminum one way check valve.

Maybe the signal line going to the bypass valve?

There are three connection from the TID. One looks like it goes to the boost sensor and T's off to the center of the Air Control Valve. One that goes to a check valve, and one that goes to the bypass valve. The one that goes to the bypass valve looks like it gets a orifice or restrice pellet.
