Ok guys and gals,

In a previous post I was asked for pics about the way the vacuum lines were left by the PO. So here it goes and a little help straightening out this mess would be nice.

1st - What the heck is this item? There are two metal pipes in Pic 2 that run between the TB and engine and hook to this. I haven't seen this pipe on others engine bay shots so I was wondering what it controls. Yes, i know the engine bay is dirty, but my main concerns right now are getting my fuel parts and getting her running.

2nd - Here is the metal pipe, the two hoses in the center of the picture are what they are connected to. Also.. What the hell? No P nipple on the throttle body? Serious issue? or do I just need to plug the hole till I decide to buy a new TB?

Waiting on pay day this Thursday so I can order a walbro 190, MAFT, 680 injectors and actually start getting the car able to feed that 60-1 turbo.
