Boost controll solenoid 2.0 OHC turbo guys!

Can everyone check their boost control solenoid and see where both lines out of that go? 1 goes to the waste gate, but where does the other one go? I've check out several different vacuum diagrams and all I've seen so far do not have two outs shown... Maybe I have the wrong one or something.... I'll take a pick of mine tonight and try to post it so people can make sure I'm calling it the right thing. (my car was sorta in shambles when I got it, and who knows what people did to it before I got hold of it). Any info... Thanks for the help

The 2 vaccum ports "out" of the solinoid ---one goes to the waste gate vaccum pod on the turbo,and the other goes no where,its just a "vent" to the outside air,,do not plug this,it has to vent the air to get the waste gate to close again----Jack

That's awesome, Tony just sent me an email on the vacuum diagrams to back it... Thanks and I usderstand why it that way now. It doesn't vent the whole time then, just for the split second to open I take it.
