The bracket on the passenger side strut tower where the EGR ect. vaccum lines attatch, what all does that feed? My car has no EGR and no smog pump. What other lines attatch to that mess of vaccum lines? I am wondering about deleting the whole bracket.

Also when the previous owner installed the Trick Flow intake he kinda tangled and mangled the vaccum lines behind there. The car runs fine but it looks a mess. The red vaccum line is supposed to be for the fuel pressure reg right?? I have a rubber vaccum hose hooked to the fuel pressur reg and the red one is snapped in half hanging there. As long as the regulator has vaccum it's all good though right?

In case it helps, here's a vacuum schematic and a second schematic.

If you deleted your egr and smog pump.. all you really need to worry about is the fuel pressure regulator, evap if you got it going to the canister, the brake booster, and the HVAC controls for inside the car. Oh and the pcv

Click to expand...

The EVAP is already unhooked and I have no HVAC so just Fuel Pressure regulator, Brake Booster and PCV.
