Ok, I have attached 4 pics.

Pic 1. What's that?

Pic 2. The "thingy" in pic 1 from what I see is connected to the FMU at the bottom. The vacuum line on the top of the "thingy" was run to the IM, Boost Gauge, Turbo, and Blowoff. So, I am assuming that once those hoses are removed I would just run a vacuum hose from "thingy" to IM.....CORRECT?
And where the heck does the hose at the bottom of the "thingy" run to once disconnected from the FMU?

Pic 3 is just where I am thinking the vacuum hose runs to.

Pic 4 is the hose that runs from the turbo, but I noticed that it is running to the back of the engine underneath. Where do you think this is hooked up to?

That's all for now.
Thanks

Oh another thing, I also noticed another hose running from the bottom of the FMU to a very thin tubing that looked like a a brake line or something of that sort....Where could that be going?

I know it isn't much, but I do what I can... lol If I had first hand experience with an FMU, I would be able to help more.

Dang trust.....u one smart fella.
I already disconnected the turbo line so that may just be it.
I figured out what the thin line was.......duh.....obviously if the hose was running to the FMU then it had to be a fuel line, ey? So I put 1 and 1 together and connected the dots and the OEM pressure regulator would in turn run to that fuel line once I remove the FMU.

WAP I'm a genius

So, my question is, are you planning on selling that turbo kit? Or are you just going to keep it in case you want to turbo again? I like that manifold. If it was a/c compatible, I would be bugging the hell out of you to buy it.

Why are you taking the turbo kit off in the first place?
