if you dont have a vac tree. ya car wont run broke mine and tried to use the lil pvc part on the side to block it off.. i had little to no brakes and had to "two foot" the car.. just order one from the dealership.. costed me 10 bucks..

see the new i got theres no spot for a vacuum tree so im guessing after 97 they got rid of them,but i dont know for sure.

 

[GTPSHAWTY]

[2DeepInc]

[GTPSHAWTY]

You need to put a vacuum T where the line goes into the lim under the snout and just run the vacuum lines like it was a 98+.

This is what the 97's vac lines look like

This is what the 98+ looks like just as a reference.

This is what mine looks like modified to give you a better idea.



If it wasn't dark out I could get you some better pics.

If possible I would give the FPR it's own vac source.
