a mate i saw today spotted this when i had the bonnet up,its obviously not standard,mate lent me the red pipe thats in its place now,its made no difference to the car at all,ive blown into the pipe and its connected to something, have had the engine running and it produces no kind of pressure,
it goes into the driver front wing then vanishes ?

its the pressure feed for the fuel pressure regulator. looks like its been tee'd into for a boost gauge fitment.

ok,thanks for the reply rich,
it goes into the wing is it going anywere else after that and attaching to something or can i give it a pull and it will pull out?

seems like the previous japanesey owner bolted on all kinds of toys

one more thing,whats the orange disc thing for?

 

[Richard G]

the pipe will be running through the inner wing and into the cabin through the main wiring harness. have a look under the dash for a pipe hanging there if you dont have a boost gauge there now.

you could always leave the pipework there for if you wanna install a gauge just make sure the end is blocked off.

the orange thing is a filter.

The disc is just a little filter. does your car have a boost guage as the other end of the pipe may connect to that.

just had a look this what i found,the small wire taped to the pipe, already had the screw innit,if i do decide to get a boost gauge is that all ill need now,not the whole kit or is still some bits missing?

 

[Richard G]

thats just got a bolt in there to block it off, so if you do get a boost gauge then you dont have the hassle of getting the vac pipe into the cabin, which is the biggest battle
