I have a greddy FMIC supposedly for an S13. I know that the throttle body vacuum lines go to canister, BOV, and FPR. The wastegate is suppose to get its signal from a "nipple" on the hot pipe from the FMIC. But my question is i don't have a "nipple" on the hot pipe its an inch wide "nipple" is that suppose to go to something else or what? I was thinking maybe the PCV hose would connect to it? Its about the same size ruffly but i don't think the pressure would actually be good for it. Or is my thinking wrong? I thought that the PCV hose connect to the Air Intake? Thanks for any help?

Isn't that for the recirculation valve?

Also, the PCV valve is on the other side of the motor and it connects into the intake manifold.

That right there is for the stock BOV. Have it welded shut. Thats what I did. Or find some way to cap it off. Its not used
