WRX to Spec C inlet manifold dilemma!!
Hi there, as above i've swapped my WRX inlet manifold for a spec C to rid me of seized TGV's, my problem is they are slightly different so could anyone enlighten me as to where the vacuum hoses and air switch? go which were situated on the offside on the WRX inlet. A tube connected to a nipple almost right behind the throttle body? Pictures or diagrams would be excellent.

From memory - I'll look later!
You should have a 90 degree bent outlet on the front that goes to the purge valve, two threaded holes on the rear one is PCV other need blanking. I used the one on the passenger side for my FPR and the large one on the rear for brake servo.

IIRC the Spec C manifold also has an extra temp sensor hole which needs blanking off.....now you have spare wiring to fire up AVCS heads should you go that way 
Just need to turn off the CEL for now I guess

hi there timthebat.
i hope you know, you should get a remap as soon as you do this avac removall, or only run car gently without going into boost, can damage engine,
please be aware of this,,
get remap asap, the mapper can then remove the cel light function regarding no avac unit in place, and map as req
best of luck, scoobymike

It's just something I have in the back of my mind that the Spec C had an extra hole for a charge temp sensor......... I might have been dreaming LOL
