Can I Get Some Advice Please??

Hey guys i had a question for you~
i have a flange coming in today for my Type RS, and I'm not sure which intercooler pipe to weld it to. Ive seen many pics with it on the left, and the right so its been very confusing! I have labeled each one of my pipes connecting to my FMIC, so could someone please tell me which one to weld it too?

You could use the first pipe. You have to run the vacuum line to the UIM anyway. Plus with the AST on there, you wouldn't want to clutter up the 2nd pipe. It'd look funny.
