Can someone with a successful Bp swap into a 94+ mx3 please post close up pictures of the vacuum lines and around the whole intake manifold (both passenger and drivers side) area?

yeah i've studied over that picture a million times. i just thought for a swap into the mx3 some vacuum lines might be different.
so that knobby vacuum piece coming out of the top of the IM on the passenger side is just supposed to be sealed off.
where does the vacuum line that goes to the brakes lead to?
what about the lines/hoses underneath the TB?

Very bottom picture white line that sort of goes nowhere goes
to the fuel pressure regulator.

no no those pictures dont show the line i'm talkin about. its actually underneath the vacuum canister thingy and its a bigger tube coming out of the intake manifold. got a lot of suction.

If i had a 94+ body MX-3 I know i can figure out how to do a successful BP swap on that infamous model.. but i don't have a model to test on.. i know it would take alot of BS to make it work.. auto it has been done.. a 5 speed i would do not a fan of auto..
