Hoses

Does anyone know what the hoses to the left and right of the supercharger pulley do? Looking to the left of the supercharger pulley there are two lines that look almost identical. Right before they reach te supercharger they turn from rubber to metal. Are they both pumping coolant into the intercooler or is one pumping coolant into the intercooler and the other pumping coolant out? And what about the two hoses to the right of the supercharger pulley. What do they do? Any advise would be kindly appreciated. Thanks

If you mean the two black hoses located to the Left & Right just above the pulley on the charger face...This is a hollowed out section to plumb the emissions air pump. You know that sound you hear when you first start up after the car is cool...That vacuum cleaner sound... The air pump helps the cats get hot so they can do their job quicker thus lowering emissions.

Thanks. I was actually referring to the hoses just below those hoses though. I believe you and Stevebez mentioned that the hoses on the left which connect to the steel pipes are for coolant (in & out). What are the ones on the left for?
