greddy turbo kit help!
i installed the greddy turbo kit on a 06 rx-8, i am having trouble with the vacuum lines. on the instructions it says to hook up the jet fuel mix line to the charge pipe, and replace the oil bypass hose on the oil filler to the intake pipe, and the metering oil pump to the intake pipe. what happens to the hose that was originally on the oil bypass? and which hose is the jet fuel mix and which is the metering oil pump hose? right now I have 4 hoses and 3 fittings. pictures would be helpful.

Oil filler hose goes to a catch can, then from the catch can to the barb on the air filter assembly.
The Jet air fuel mixing hose comes from the lower intake manifold, which you can see the metal tube it connects to behind and to the left of the alternator. This hose should be connected to your 3" charge pipe that is attached to the throttle body. Earier kits don't have a barb for this, you might have to weld one on.
The Oil metering pump hose goes to a vacuum block that is bolted down by your primary injector rail (under the plastic upper intake manifold). This connection can't be seen unless you remove the manifold. There are (4) hoses that then lead to each oil nozzle that have a one way check valve, so air can only go towards the oil injectors. By applying vacuum to this hose, you'll shut the valve(s). Connect this line to the air filter assembly as well.
You should only have 3 hoses, unless you are counting the connection to and from the oil catch can. The kit doesn't come with it, so you'll have to spring for one. You can find them from any perfomance shop or you can do the ebay thing.

i hooked up the jet air fuel mix hose to the charge pipe, and the oil filler to the intake, now there are 2 more hoses, and only 1 connection, i hooked the hose that is under the jet air fuel mix hose to the intake assuming that is the right one. now in the pic there is a hose that i have no idea where it goes, anyone know? its the one left of the charge pipe, and it goes on the bottom of the intake manifold near the oil filter. it is a 06, and i looked at the 05's and they dont have it.
