where does the two air hoses connect to? on mine, one of them is T-off and goes into the actuator and the turbo, but the other one just flops about next to the air filter. I'm running GGR335 conversion, it's been running fine, but now that I've bought the MSD chip, not too sure whether I'm need to connect the hoses anyone please?

The one in the first pic would have connected to the original airbox as its just a bleed off vent. The t-piece is correct
