Default What to do?

I just got picked up my heads and they look great! but the guys sent me a ported to matched intake to go with it. the only thing is the intake is alittle different and has a egr set up " mine dont" now i plugged the egr hole with a freeze plug and epoxyed it. but still uncertian about some other things...

the new intake had a male plug " the middle one"



And my old intake doesnt its blocked off...




Then the New one Has the hole blocked off were the breather hole on the throttle body goes?



Heres a picture of my throttlebody and you can see the hole im talking about



now the only thing i could find is it looks like its a breather and or something for like Pcv crap? what do i do about it? " heres a picture of my current intake" and you can see the hose comming off the intake and going into the valve cover




zoomed out a bit




If you all could help me complete the puzzle id greatly appreciate it....

The "middle" plug your taking about is a vac port for a fuel pressure regulator. If your returnless you wont use it so just put a vac cap on it.

The second port your talking about is for the PCV system. It goes from the valve cover to either the intake or throttle body. If you don't have either then just tap your intake tube and connect it to that.

Where's the hole on your throttle body? Does it look something like this?

DBC throttle body's have the vac port for the PCV system on it, when they switched to DBW the electronics went there so they moved it to the intake. Same port just different locations.

ya, see the new intake looks like the one you have but my TB isnt cable driven so the hose that goes into your TB should go into my intake but there isnt a place on the TB like on yours. So basically it looks like one of 3 things.... eather get a diffrent TB. or cant use that intake, or plug off that line that goes from the intake/or TB into the passanger valve cover ?

This is what Im talking about doing. Making your own port on the intake tube since you dont have one now and run a line from the vavle cover to the intake tube.
