Vacuum hose? (on maf pipe)

I am curious what the vacuum hose is for that connects into the air intake between the MAF sensor and turbo. It looks like it runs to some piece below where the stock airbox sits. Reason I ask is because I installed my buschur intake today and there is not a place to reconnect this vacuum hose? What should I do with it?

Thanks

that goes to the factory boost controller. This has to be hooked up unless you change to a mbc.

sounds like my buddy that bought busher i/c pipes and they didnt include a nipple on the lower i/c pipe.. he isnt the smartest kid but someone should have told how to reconnect the vacuum line.. or something like instructions.. he boosted to 25 psi, and then he brought it to me so it could be fixed the right way.. sorry that pissed me off, cause i would of been replacing the head if he lifted it.,.. sorry rant..

I have a mbc but not installed. If I install the hallman, I won't have to worry about this vacuum line being hooked into somewhere else? I am just wondering if there is somewhere else I can connect this line since there is not a spot in the intake.

The line is routed back into the intake piping for emissions purposes. If you're switching to an MBC, you won't have any air running in/out of the boost control solenoid and do not need to worry about the line.

Don't get a Hallman, they're having problems lately with a bunch of them being defective.
