Putting 93' back together...3 questions??

1. Where is the best location for connecting the oil metering vacuum lines when going single?

2. Can you just plug the gas vapor line (i.e. charcoal filter line..not the supply or return)?

3. Can you plug the small hose at the bottom of the stock radiator when dumping the plastic fill housing up top?

Thanks in advance for your comments.

1. well they need constant vacuum so somewhere before the turbo.

2. yes

3. is this the AST line? not sure. if it is then yes plug it. but when you eliminate the AST you need to get the filler neck with a nipple and run that hose to the overflow tank and put the pressure cap on the filler neck.

In response to question 1, I disagree with rockshox.

To make a LONG argument short, in the factory setup they are connected before the turbo, but I connect them AFTER the turbo on my car and so do a lot of other people. Do a search and you should pull up some of the differing opinions.

That is part of the problem. I have searched this and read many threads and still can't make up my mind. I am running a t-60 series with a large IC and the BOV mounted just past the IC.
