Hi everyone!
I picked up my stock SE just after Christmas and have been absolutely loving it.
Iv been doing plenty of research and such and whilst I want and will do some of the standard upgrades (exhaust etc) iv been eyeing off my throttle pipe elbow always edging towards blowing off even after readjusting and using a better clamp and decided this would be the easy introduction into mods and such.
So I received today the MX5mania pipe upgrade which I believe is the same unit as FM sell in the US.
It's all straight forward as such but my problem is I don't have or intend to do the intake upgrade due to the issues with boost cut etc, so where do I plug the bypass valve I think it is?
(The smallest hose running from the wastegate to the top most of the factory elbow)
In the FM instructions they attach it to their new CAI pipe but since I don't have or want one, where do I plug it into??
Please help and please be gentle, as you can probably tell, I'm not overly engine/mechanical savvy but want to learn as much and do as much myself

Re: Mania/FM throttle pipe upgrade
So apparently it connects to any vacuum hose, so will join it to the vacuum hose from the bpv.
That would be what the t-piece was for if anyone has a head scratching moment with this part like I had ;)
