One of them is for the idle air bypass. I can't remember the other one. Id have to look under my hood. The plumbing with the stillen v2 kit came with fittings for all of them.

Yeah. Any hoses attached to the intake BEFORE the throttle body will be connected to the new intake plumbing also before the throttle body.

OH, so thats what your doing. Yeah, it can be a pain if you don't have a welder. I'm tying to make one for my girlfriends Corolla and it's turning out to be a pain in the a$$!
