    you run 98 vac line routing. google it.

    only 97 had that vac tree on the blower, car will run with out it change the way the lines run, thats all.

    the bbv maybe f'ed up and needs to be replaced.

    host your pics on photo bucket, then link them here. so we all can see em.

    wait someone filled the boost bypass valve bolt holes and the actuator arm?

    sounds like it may have been used as an (empty) turbo intake setup...

    ^ 97 blower vacuum line routing.


    ^ 98+ blower vacuum line routing.


    ^ Is this what is missing? The Boost Bypass Actuator? Are you saying where this actuator arm goes into thw supercharger housing is blocked off?
