Question: weird sound after intercooler installation

hi to all...this is the problem...

I just installed the Greddy Spec M on my EVO IX. It came with all the necesary to install it. Including LICP for both sides.
If you look at the car front side...from the right: you know that you have the filter, intake, turbine and then the piping that goes to the intercooler left side...the OEM black tubing that came out of the turbine have a little vaccum line that connects to the EBC ( I have the Greddy Profec Type S). Now, the new piping does not have that littel vaccum tubbing. In where I should reconnect that hose?...I connected it with a Y connector using the hose that goes to the BOV (Greddy type RS), this is a correct connection?

Other topic: after the installation I ran the car but noticed a different sound when I hit the accelerator...what could this sound be?

Need help guys!

Thanks in advance.

what sound do you hear? That old line you pulled of the intake tube goes to your stock solenoid. You need to cap that off. You're getting pressure from your intake plenum through the T , then back to your stock solenoid. That's not good. Did you leave the power connector in for the stock solenoid? That should be plugged and and your solenoid should be capped off. Hows your car boosting? Check for leaks on all your connections with soapy water and make sure everything is tight. You need to post pics, so we can help you more.
