Hello to all you guys/gals out there!

Firstly, this is my 1st post so I apologise in advance if I get something wrong!

Can anybody out there cast any light on this engine I've just bought/installed?

Specs as follows:

325i Sport

Recon head,new valve guides exhaust and inlet. (£150 head,£200 for new guides)
Schrick 272/272 camshaft. (£300)
Zone big bore throttle body (£120)
535,yellow injectors. (£160 ultra sonically cleaned)
535 AFM (£50)
FSE fuel regulator set @3.5bar (£80)
Pipercross filter (£80)
Sport ECU with zone chip. (£55)

The reason I ask is it has a secondary vacuum pipe coming off the inlet manifold (opposite the thin blue pipe that goes to the fuel regulator), and I don't know where to connect it as my last engine didn't have it. Blocking it off causes to hunt!!

Any advise would be great!
