    It should be same as the std DV, I think on the ABY it goes to the vacuum nipple on the front of the inlet manifold.

      should it be under the inlet manifold . Mine has no vac line and no nipple for one to be fitted to.

        Post a pic of the front section of your inlet manifold... ABY has nipple there with a small hose that connects to a metal pipe that sneaks behind the timing belt and appears near the MAF pipe where you attach a short section of flexible hose to the DV.

            All plumb in thanks for the help. Now at the risk of embarrassing my self again. When it comes to adjusting the re plumb from soft to hard is it all down to the individuals preference or is there advantages to be gained by a certain setting.
            Thanks in advance Gary.
