Where does this go

I'm putting my supercharger back after a TB upgrade. I noticed a metal tube but can't figure out where it goes and what part it plays (Gas vapor return)? Please advise where I connected it.

It connects into the body of the supercharger itself. There should be a black, rubber grommet still in the supercharger that, that aluminum hose sticks into. The grommet can be seen by leaning over the drivers side fender. It is on the upper half of the SC body. Extremely common piece to forget.

You mean on the back of the charger?

Yes, back of the supercharger, drivers side. Only a few inches from where it's sitting in the pictures you posted. When looking at your pics(s), move it left (towards passenger side) and then down and there should be the black rubber grommet....unless you accidentally pulled it out.

Thanks! I believe the rubber is still there. I believe there are two holes on the snout, one of which is plugged up on purpose. Thanks again for chiming in!
