what does the hose from the charcol canister to the plastic pipe before the turbo do? is it part of emissions or whatever? does it transfer oil vapor to the induction system to be consumed by the motor? people with aftermarket piping to the turbo, how do you go about plugging it up?

its used to burn the vapours in the fuel tank just unplug it it does nothing at all, just emissions controls, but if you get caught without out it connected there will be fines and a visit to the EPA
