Default EJ257 extra pipe?????

Hi all,

I'm in the middle of converting my EJ20 to an EJ257.

I've just noticed that the EJ257 has a pipe sticking out of the top, in the middle that the EJ20 doesn't have.

Can you please tell me what it is for and what I should connect to it, or should I blank it off?

Thanks in advance

It is a breather pipe looking at a picture on the APS website.
Link to website Subaru STI Performance

Here is the link to the fiting guide for the turbo intake pipe, look at picture 8
APS Turbo Inlet Pipe

I am sure when I fitted this kit to my bug this pipe goes onto the bottom of the inlet manifold.

Hope this helps Steve

Thanks guys,

That link shows it very clearly Steve, ta mate.

I might just connect it to the other breather as I'm paranoid that any little thing will make my rebuild go t*ts up!!
