Disconnected hoses and CAI

Disconnected hoses and CAI
I have a 2000 and I notice that I have 3 hoses going into my air intake resonator. The crankcase ventilation tube and two others each a different size and both smaller than the crankshaft ventilation tube. Where would the smaller 2 connect on a CAI or Berk? What do they do? Looks like the smallest may go to the fuel pressure regulator, but not sure. I also have a hose going from my front air scoop to my tranny. Not sure what that does either. My question is if I go with a CAI or ram air (like the Berk) where do these other hoses connect? What do I do with them and what effect does the fact that these hoses are disconnected have? I'm sure someone thought this through when creating these after-market intakes, but I'm very curious. Thanks.

i put on my intake on about two weeks ago. its very well made. hoses connect right up with no fitment issues. everything fit just perfect and install was a breeze.

I have maybe one loose with my weapon r. Not needed, IMO. Since they only went to the resonator, no need to attach them. thanks to my boy on the org. no problems since i installed mine. How do u like it? i find no real increase in perf, why? but there would def be at least 1 not used ne more.

i noticed a nice power increase. feels stronger on the freeway now. plus with the intake and exhaust everyone loves how my car sounds. gave a friend a ride home today and he was impressed with the aggressive sound my car has. i also drove past a lot of ricers the other night and i swear every single person turned around to watch me drive by.
