Just disconnect the tee and connect the two hoses from the from the intake tube to the two hoses from the wastegate solenoid. AEM wouldn't have given you 1 extra tube, nipple, and hole for you to just plug it up. I've been running my AEM setup with no problem. I love it like a fat kid loves cake!

No prob. Probably won't make a noticable difference, but eh.. if you're gonna do it, might as well do it right, right?

Enjoy!

You can just leave them to atmosphere, it's just a bleed port. I'm sure different intakes have different set ups anyways. The Nisei one has it vented as well and relocates the BOV.

looks nice with the nisei pipes, i also have the intake along with test pipe and prototype megan 3inch catback and the car has come alive no more slowwing down after 6500rpm, it just shoots all the way up to redline, next mod will def. be a reflash, heard it does wonders!
