Question Turbo system simplification question

I was looking at Rob Robinette's Turbo System Simplification page and couldn't understand it clearly as what you do with the orange hose that has the check valve in it from the pressure chamber , do you cap it or what goes in the other side of the LIM.
Have someone done this before ?

See picture below!

If I were you, I would just pull all the hoses off one by one and see which ones your car REALLY needs. lol, j/k. I think you have to cap it, If it doesn't show up there, that should be the reason.

So what would be the point of the check valve, why not just cap the nipple at the pressure chamber, right?

It's got to be a point of that check valve, otherwise it wouldn't be there !

On Robinettes page, just read it more carefully says that the orange hose that seems like it goes no where, it should be connected on UIM.

Check the # 11 on his page
