Hello,
I was just wondering where to hook up the vacuum hose from the wastegate after installing the FMIC. I know that the stock cold pipe has a nipple where the wastegate hose connects to, but with the fmic, there’s no nipple on the cold pipe to hook up the hose.
Should i just tee the hose of the BOV or make a nipple on the hot pipe?
Thanks in advance!
There are two ports directly above the throttle body; one for small hose another for large hose.
Small hose generally goes right to FPR.
You can run a tee from the larger one to your wastegate and/or BOV.
Or you can do what I did; Weld a bung on the hot pipe and run an AN nipple w/ SS line to your wastegate:
You can see in the pic below I have line going to my BOV (and the other goes to boost gauge)
alright thanks man, good info. I’m going to weld a bung like you did. I dont feel like teeing off more of off the vaccum lines.
Thanks again!
Drill and tap a 1/8 npt hole and thread in a barbed fitting like so:
Much easier than getting it welded.
That’s pretty neat, haven’t thought about that. Will take it into consideration.
Thanks!
