vortech install help

2 questions:

for the sc what do the fresh air and vent hoses from the opti hook up to? i read the manual and it said to cut the one, not really sure what to do and what they hook up to

also does anyone have pics of the air inlet side, wanted to know what hoses hook up to the inlet pipe, i want to just fab my own out of allum. instead of using the vaccum cleaner hose that vortech supplies, id rather just tap it with the fitting or weld them


thanx for any help in advance

well i just installed my procharger kit, and the two tubes that go from the inlet pipe to the pcv valve on the drivers side intake, then the other tube goes from the inlet pipe to the passenger's side valve cover, where there is already a pipe hook which goes from the TB to the valve cover, buy a plug for the TB and put the tube into the valve cover, good luck

yes, those are the only 2 tubes, the one opti tube goes to the intake somewhere right before the TB, i just drilled a small hole into the rubber peice and shoved it in, and the other one goes somewhere on your intake, im not exactl sure where, but with that PVC vavle, it goes from the side of ur intake to the front of the TB or somewhere around there, you also have to take that peice out n plug the hole, good luck
