where does this hose go???

hey guys,
i just bought my 02 wrx and have a question. It came with the column mounted boost gauge and will only read .05mpa at full boost. This seems very low. so i checked out a few things and found the "T" connection by the turbo has a hose taht goes to nothing. It's the long one that would go off the bottom of the T. Just wanted to know if this is my problem and where this hose goes. THanks for you help

Did you buy the car from a dealer or private party? You need to contact whoever you got it from and find out why it's missing a hose. sounds like it had some kind of boost control installed and was removed before it was sold. Finding out what mods it had, and what stock parts are still on there will help figure out what's needed to put it all back to stock.

I just realized that my first post had some incorrect info. Definitely talk to whoever you got the car from, and do a search on here about "3/16 mod" or "manual boost controller" and you can find some diagrams about how the hoses are supposed to be hooked up.
