top port is for vacuum and the lower port you hook o the pressure side of your wastegate to make it louder and more responsive i have it hooked up on mine and noticed a difference.

just use the top one.
the newer fakes don't have the lower nipple, just a hole.

Hooking up the bottom one could make it open under boost since the only force holding the valve shut is the spring. DON"T HOOK IT UP TO ANYTHING.

hooking the lower port up make the bov release quicker in turn making it much crisper in sound and more accurately releiveing all the trapped pressure in you pipes.. and as long as its not adjusted to soft YOU WILL NOT have a problem with boost blowing it open.. i run mine with both ports and havent had boost blow it open yet...

Hoook it up to a boost-only source. Makes it louder and faster like everyone has said. I ran it that way on my 240sx. Without it hooked up, it was too slow and i got surge. With the 2nd thing hooked up, it was 100x better. DO IT.
