If im not mistaken, that goes to the little nipple on the UIM, you need another vacuum line to go from that to the nipple. Thats the PCV valve.

Ya there is a nipple on the upper intake manifold that the hose plugs into. Just bend your head down and you will see it.

I connected it to this tube that I found that looked like it went too.


The tube runs to the air intake on the turbos...


So now it looks like this.

I dont want to start the car up until i know if this is right or not. I dont want to do any damage.

thats is your pcv line that goes to the large nipple on your upper intake manifold. it just does a 90 off of the oil fill tower pretty much. the line coming up from the turbo inlet goes to your vacum rack...

I dont see anywhere where it would go except one nipple and it is plugged off.

The hose coming from the turbo...no idea where to even look to put that.

On 93-94s, there are two lines to the oil filler neck -- one goes to the PCV valve and the UIM. The other goes to primary turbo intake. On 95s, the PCV line does not exist and is capped off.

EDIT -- At least I THINK so. They changed the crankcase ventilation a little with the 95s. On 95s, I know the line runs straight from the oil filler neck to the primary turbo intake. Perhaps on 93-94s, it doesn't.

I am running non-sequential twins.

I just connected the tubing to the turbo intake, and now I am getting no smoke on hard accelarations or the smoke coming out of the tail pipe while cruising.

I feel a lot better now. Now I just need to see if it stay consistent.
