Yes.  But what you have in your bay does not match the manual.  The line you are holding IS going between the canister and a solenoid, but the solenoid is behind the PS reservoir, which would tend to suggest that it is the boost control solenoid valve, not the purge solenoid valve.  Just follow the lines in the last image I posted and you will see what is supposed to connected to where.  I can't show you a completely useful photo of mine, because it is in an R32 and the canister is different.

Thanks a munch for your help mate. Yes your correct, it was auto but has been manual converted recently. I have been having boost power issues since the conversion, the boost just seems to drop out after 4k rpms and only kicks in around 3k rpms. Sorry to complicate things mate but im trying to find anything that is related and im thinking this might be

That's the boost control solenoid.

I have an electric boost controller and may have mistaken it but doesn’t this line hook up to a manual boost controller on some cars?

The OEM boost control solenoid is hooked up to vent some of the boost signal from the compressor outlet tapping port on its way to the wastegate actuator.  the instant you put in any other sort of boost controller (manual, EBC, whatever), the original solenoid is no longer used.  The new boost controller then does what the original one used to do.

Ok thanks mate, i dont have a manual boost controller so do you think this is why i am having boost issues?

It's in the last picture I posted.

I cant tell where there going to in the diagram. It looks like it goes to something on kr near the pipe but i cant see anything like that in my engine bay. Also i have this t piece here, is that normal or are those lines meant to go to the solenoid?

You won't find anyone who can show you a photo of a stock setup, because no-one has a stock setup.

So, if you look at the last diagram, you will see where hoses are supposed to sit, and if you look at the first diagram, and follow the pipes between the solenoid, turbo outlet and turbo inlet, you should be able to work it out, including the T piece.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
