Question about the KB installation

I've got a question about two of the vacuum hoses. Oe the Eaton there are two hoses , one leads to air tube under the throttle body, the other comes off of a wire loom on the rear of the engine bay. THey both terminate on the Eaton.

The KB only has one termination for a vacuum line. I am thinking that one of the other two is for the stock boost gauge ???(obvioulsy I'm not certain )

Can someone enlighten me as to what they did here ? I think maybe T it off of a small hose from the KB and run to the air tube under the throttle body and the other to the boost gauge ?

I'm grasping here....can anyone provide any help? What are the two leads goign to the Eaton for ?

Here's a pic for reference:

The KB bypass just uses one feed line. Put the pink hose onto the bypass, and just cap the plastic nipple off on the bottom of the intake boot.

Thank you for the quick response sir....haven't seen you around much lately.


Another questions...little off topic....I figured since they were so accessible I would go ahead and pull the plugs to see how they look (especially since my last plug launching incident ). I have only pulled the first two on the pass side, both were tight.....whewww .....but they both have a weird light green/yellowish tint to them....any idea what that means ?

I don't see it on NGK's website as a color option
