You have to drill a hole in your exhaust manifold, and tap in a male nipple, and run the hose to that.

teh flange side goes to your intake piping after the turbo and IC. The nipple that is provided goes to a vac source on the intake. what BOV are you talkign about anyway?

the vacume line goes to your intake manifold. make sure its AFTER the throttle body.

also, would the welding make a difference? for example if i cut a hole in the charge pipe and stuck the flange a little lower than the charge pipe surface, will that make a difference? thanks for the reply....

I placed mine before the throttle body but after the intercooler. Run a T off of your brake booster line (between the intake mani and the check valve). Find me a picture and I'll show you where to put it all. With that said, when I put mine it it was a TiAL and it was stuck shut. I put it on a vaccum pump and had to pump it to almost 120 cm/hg3 before it came open.
