no sorry crap write up it starts from the little black box by the air filter then to the splits one to the fpr then splits twice one to the box at the back of the throttle bodies and the other one goes under the tps then under the throttle bodies then?
sorry its a bit hard to put in words

That's the boost sensor for the gauges on your dashboard.

It shouldn't really have all those splits on it; maybe once to an after-market boost gauge, and or the boost controller (just so that you can see it's seeing the same pressure as your gauges).

As Danny says, it shouldn't be attached to to FPR because that's critical and should therefore have a dedicated line.

I don't know if this helps:


I'm sure I can find a diagram for all the hoses somewhere.

this is the proper way of piping things up, the pressure reg is 'T' piped into the sensor pipe...

You're right; it says 3-way connector, but I still think it should have it's own line to the air box on the under-side of the plenum, and the T-connector on the boost sensor to whatever else you want (like the dump valve).

Like so:

(Although I appreciate that this is no more clear about which hose is which.)
