Innovate Install Help - Vacuum Routing
Does anyone have a diagram of the vacuum routing? I messed up somewhere as I expected because the directions are non-existent for the hose extensions. I have no idea where I went wrong.

To the throttle body there are 2 hoses. 1 from the front top of the motor, one from the rear right of the motor near the brake master cylinder. The extra hose that is larger in diameter goes to the intake tube. If you look at the tube, there is a fitting that it will slide over.

I traced one...I misspoke when I say MAF extension I meant throttle body extension (loom)

I replaced both of those hoses with the ones supplied in the kit. Measure your hoses and compare the lengths to those called out in the directions. 25.4mm/1inch.
I routed both hoses around from the back to the throttle body. |
Thanks for the help, I'm calling it a night about 85-90% done. Too many dropped bolts, cuts and trying to understand how things go back together.

@swift996 - that second video, that hose you traced is for the heater hose. that one goes to the bottom port (one facing out toward you) of the throttle body.
The other heater hose is attached at the back of the block, and goes to the top port of the throttle body. The only other lines are coming off the Evap solenoid (one goes to the fuel evap hard line, the other goes to the port on the back of the supercharger - one on the driver side). In that first video, that line in the back is one of the stock lines that was attached to the stock intake manifold under the cover which is the crankcase line. That goes to the brass barb on the supercharger. The other barb (on the passenger side) on the supercharger is for the brake booster. Thats should be everything if i'm not mistaken. PS - read the directions a couple of times. Its not completely straight forward but all the answers are in there. I wish I took some pics because I would have done a DIY for it. |
Smart you took a break. tired and frustrated equal more mistakes and stress.

I did about 5hrs of work last night, probably have another hour this morning. It was pretty dark too (I usually work in sun light). I had a light but it's still not the same. With the vacuum lines, they could have easily labeled them or put a plastic indicator around them. I think one of the tougher parts so far was keeping all the wiring and hoses under the supercharger. Other than that just a lot of tight quarters around the injectors, injector covers, bolts for the manifold, etc. I also wish they have a few more pics/diagrams in the instructions, most of it's straight forward but in a few areas it will just say install _____ w/o a pic that could be helpful. This is my first time doing something like this, but I do everything else with my car, so I know my way around.
