As the subject says.....how do I connect this?What is the function of each connection?This is an HKS BOV

Its already welded with a flange to a tube, ready to be installed.Have an extra flange for anyone needing one.

Thats the ooolllddd old HKS bov, they are pretty cool looking.

Your pics kinda small, but im pretty sure a BOV only needs one vac source. Try hooking up a line to each and see which one works. Without a better pic or looking at it in person i cant help you to much more. Trial and error will tell yah, one tiny bit of compressor surge isnt gona kill you.

Mine does not have the hoses.Also, HKS does not have any type of online manual.As of now, I am running without a blowoff (7psi) but want to be safe and was a great deal too!!

Weiirdddd, from that pic it would seem that it needs vacuum to both spots. It looks like there's a T there that gives the vacuum to the front side of that, as well as the big hose that gives it to the one in the middle.

I would say run it like that..
