Default basic questions about Greddy BOV

I have the type R


Where do the 3 outputs connect?

I'm thinking I need to block the top one (what is the top actually for?)
Top/side connects to intake manifold
and the bottom?

The top is for spring preload not air i belive. the side is for a vac/boost line from after the TB. The bottom one is left open i'm pretty sure. Do you actually have it yet?

Just plug a vacuum line into the nipple on the back and your set.

Yah.. I was mistaken.. I thought it was for something else. So now the only real question is... what exactly is the one on bottom for?

b18eg6,

Good info on the diagram

These are the kind of things you hope to stumble across when searching for answers.

I've never tried hooking up the bottom nipple but from what I understand it will dump faster if it is connected.
