last pic is the brake booster line (I believe) goes into the back of the manifold and the other side goes by the drivers side firewall...by the brake fluid resivoir...I am pretty sure atleast.
Congrats on the install!!!!!!!

when i first looked at it, i thought 1 and 2 were the iat mod with the resistor, but if you said it was broke, then i dont think its the one that goes to the lid.

u mean the one in the back of the manifold?? if so, then no. Its a thin vaccum line that plugs on to that and the MAP sensor is the other. the long hose will go from the back of the intake to the brake booster. the third pic, im not too sure about. i dont remember ever seeing that one.

see quote under "Pic 3"
if you dont have AIR or EGR, then remove that valve and associated vacuum tubing

Speaking of looking several times. I noticed that there is over spray on that pic #1 and was this car ever wrecked?

good question
carfax was clean, but I've found areas of spray so I am guessing it was hit, but doesn't seem like it was bad. Supports, frames etc... are all good. Whoever put it back together did an ok job, bodywise. Mechanically, this car has been a pit though. Should be a good ride when I get her done though. Payed $12k for it this summer, not bad for a 2000 WS6 optioned with 42k miles. Even if it does need work, that's ok, has been an interesting learning experience.
