pill question

on the 93 rx-7 there are two pills. I replaced the vac lines with silicone, but I can't seem to remember which line had which pill. also am I correct in putting the pills in the 6mm lines on the bottom? or do they go on top next to the lower intake pipe. thanks guys.

The pills go in the two lines running from the primary turbo housing to the wastegate and pre-control actuators. They are short lines and the pills are not swappable.

right on. thanks man. I hope i get the pills right. who the hell designed this system????? It's kinda cool to know that with common mods you can get a jet kit and not have to worry so much about spikes. but boost spikes tend to go away with silicone lines right. I just did the vac line job with the viton check valves, repalaced the dampner, new rubber gaskets around injectors, cleaned injectors with new o-rings and will probebly install the new fuel filter while i'm under the car. thanks again eo2am.

Damm! I never realized that they were different sizes! I replaced my lines one for one so it never presented its self as a problem. I remember they looked the same to me, as I pushed them down into the new line and fussed with them to keep'm straight! Great question and good info.
