Go to your local automotive outlet and buy some 4mm silicon vacuum hose. Pull the little elbows off and just use the new vacuum hose.

I don't think you will be able to buy those OEM fittings anywhere anymore.

Boost solenoid? The electrical bit on the back of the engine?

Leave it plugged in (or you will get a electrical fault code from the PCM) and simply bypass the vacuum side of it.

It only stops boost/fun....

I just broke that line on mine n trust me it does more then you think my L67 won't idel it almost stalls n I'm hunting down those silly elbows myself I did try a piece of vac hose on it but it seemed to link up because of how close it is to the elbow n same on the solenoid end too
Use a longer piece of vac hose and make bigger radius bends in it and it will be fine no kinks then
