the side port or angled one is bypassed the top port is where you need to hook vaccum too the bottom angled one is breather

If you dont know, dont respond.


The bottom nipple is connected to the bottom of the piston, the part where the charge pipes pressure pushes upward. When you get off the throttle, and strong vacum takes over the top portion of the bov, the charged air's pressure compressees the spring and lifts the plnunger up. The bottom nipple should be conncted to a charge pipe somewhere, it will help make the actuator function faster and open quicker. its just a little extra push up.

ding ding ding... You don't HAVE to use the bottom nipple. But it does help.
