ETS intake question

Just going through installing the ETS intake for my IX, and I have a left over vacuum line coming off of my boost solenoid which previously attached to the oem intake tube. What do I do with this now?

Also noticed that the one coming off my valve cover to the new intake tube is too short, nut I'll just get a longer one.

Thanks, Ryan.

I think people are just capping that third nipple. I think as long as you have boost source going in the appropriate port and the appropriate port going to wastegate actuator, all is good.

Don't cap it, let it vent to the atmosphere. This line is to let excess pressure vent into the intake for emission purposes. Letting it vent to the atmosphere the car will respond to boost like normal. You can even pull the line and just let the nipple on the solenoid vent.

Thanks!

I just installed my ETS and had the same question, was able to find it in another post, but good to get confirmation from ETS themselves. Love the intake and LICP btw.
