Ive not long had a new pipe fitted MAF to Turbo and it has a spare nipple on the underside (MAF) end which is blanked off, I was told it for another model, maybe a newer engined model and not to worry about it, thats if yours is blanked off..

Are you running a mbc? if so, that nipple could have been for the old bcs but afaik, the nipple for the bcs is much closer to the turbo. Blank it off and be happy :)

On mine, the bcs pipe plugs in near the pcv one ;) however, my knowledge of the older models is, limited at best. :D

yeah just found now that the bcs pipe wasnt connected to owt apart from the turbo and its the right lenght pipe to fit up to the induction so all fixed now :)
