Yeah, its for the wastegate like Danny said. You T that line for a boost controller. Running a line from that pipe to the wastegate lets the wastegate keep your boost from going over 7psi. If you take that line off then you run ∞ boost....which on a T25/28 is ~22-25psi and your motor will die quickly.

I actually poked a very small hole in that line to make it boost to 10psi, but it wasn't consistent, lol. I do not recommend doing that.



Also, for your BOV I would run the vacuum line to one of the open spots under the throttle body, you can T it to the FPR but it is ideal for each thing to have its own vacuum source.

Your build enthuses me. Its like a weird version of the mad max movie...

Keep it up though this is one death trap I can get behind.
