Default Blacktop Inlets
After getting the car as such have now noticed i have an extra port sucking in air while the car is running. Can anyone tell me what it should be connected too as when i block it with my finger the car dies.

pretty sure mine didn't have that, mine was off a frs though. Block it off. Might be dying if the fueling is out, or the throttle stop might want tweaking, can you keep it running with the throttle?

not tried yet mate tbh. I was going to block it off and had been on the list of things to do but it slipped my mind.

I had to block a couple of stubs off at the back of my inlet.

A air leak will increase the engine speed hence it cutting out when blocking the pipe stub.

If your turbo charged then you'll be hemorrhaging boost pressure to atmosphere too, block any unused ones off and set your idle accordingly.
