right,ok,you know the turbo yeah? there should be a round pie shaped object on it with and arm that comes out of it onto another arm on the exhaust side of the turbo (opposite of the inlet),this controls the boost of the turbo,on the pie shaped object there should be a pipe attached? this is a vacuum line. if u let the car idle and disconnect it you'll notice the vacuum. make any sense?
