where does this hose go?

i attached a pic of whats left of the emissions vacuum rack (we just took that bitch off) and there is hardline that runs from the compressor side of the turbo up to behind t he alternator.. i'll attach a pic since i cant describe it very well.

its the upper of the two metal hoses.



somebody let me know what to do with this hose. it looks like its just a boost source, but i'm not sure where to run it to.

I believe that is the turbos oil supply line. You cannot remove that one.

1 of them it's the OIL line to the Turbo, and 1 of them it's the line from the stock TID with the check valve.
DO NOT!! removed the oil line..but if!! it's the vac line you can remove it and cap off the nipple.

The Oil Supply Line Is the only remnant of my Solenoid Rack. I had to cut It off from the rest of the Rack. Although I've heard that cutting It off Isn't always the case.It's always seperate.

I have no need for the TID Check Valve.
