I did the same also.

Just grab the plastic tab and break it off with your fingers, then slide the hose up on it. No need for drilling anything. Thats where my boost gauge and bov are hooked up. Obviously the brake booster line will work fine as well.

Just saw that was a nnbs intake, it might be a bit different but it looks about the same.

Not saying this WILL happen, but its possible.

Also there is no seal on the valve, so it is a vacuum leak (pulling in small amounts of exhaust fumes, or being pushed in if backpressure is higher).

Running all 3 off that same port. Works great.
