Intercooler piping help!: Cross over tube?
I picked up a turbo miata in "project mode" - and almost got it back together except for the this mystery in the picture. Do you simply get a piece of hose to cross over the two sides of the intercooler tubing?
Looking for some insight into what to do here. (see pics) :
left intercooler tubing from throttle body
tubing from turbo to filter

The barb in the first photo is way too big for a vacuum line.
To me looks like it's for a recirculating BOV which dumps into the barb in front of the filter.
Do I see an MAF in your second pic?
What engine/fuel management you running?

Intercooled engines fare better when the crankcase ventilation system is left open to the atmosphere, through a filter / separator.

That's a heck of an interesting looking pipe in general. I can't recall having ever seen it before. Any idea where it came from?
The mention of Link makes me think FM, but I thought that theirs had always been welded tube.
