Default Smooth Power Coupler ?

For you guys that have installed one of these, what happens to the small plastic line that went into the side of the stock accordian? There is no place in the coupler for it.

There is a MOD that will allow you to change the location of that tube to the PCV fitting. I got mine from ecklers. It says it recalibrates the fuel pressure regulator vacuum signal for better performance. I installed it on my 98 and didnt see any difference one way or the other. It did move the line.
