Trying to figure out what to do with these hoses once going boosted, are they to be just caped, reconnected to cold pipe, or rerouted some where else? I'm keeping EGR so will need to keep and make functional its parts (welding a bung to the DP for that end)

I'm thinking1. to valve cover (will just put small filter on it and already know what I will do the PCV )2. ???3. ???4. something to do with egr? Again, I need to keep the egr, so can this take boosted pressure from the cold pipe or do I need to route to some where else?

well 1. that goes to the valve cover you should hook up to the intake pipe before the turbo to keep vacum on the crankcase. 2. will need to hook up to the cold pipe and go to the same place on the intake. 3. not sure. 4. i am pretty sure that just goes to a air box by the fan. (you can remove that)

well, I think you're right on 1. as it currently has some vac, so keep it that way. Not sure what you mean on 2. hook it up to the cold pipe where it will see boost or pre turbo where it will see vac (what function does this hose have) 4. do you know what its function is?

Edit: Removed a comment about 1. not being metered

for number 2. I meant it goes from the cold pipe to the intake manifold. You want to keep it. as for number 4 i think its only purpose is to keep the intake quiet, not positive though. you don't need it.

1. Breather hose need to go after the mafs but pre turbo. (cant see boost pressure)2. Idle air control tube. (place on cold pipe)3. Charcoal canister purge line. (dont need once you remove the charcoal canister)4. Hose goes to a black canister that serves no purpose. Probably helps with throttle response with stock intake. (Remove once boosted)
