Let me be more specific, what company sold you the kit, or did you piece it together? I looked on the powerdyne site and say nothing for a 93 Mustang, so I'm guessing its piece-meal. http://www.powerdyne.com/installation_manuals.htm

With a bypass valve you need to attach it to the intake side of the motor(usually a tube going into the intake after the blower) and vent it back into the blowers intake tube. Thats if you are tuned with a Mass Airflow system before the blower. If your MAF is after the blower and the bypass valve is before the MAF I'm guessing you would vent to the atmosphere instead of the intake.

Just guesses and I don't know how your setup is.

Its from Powerdyne.Powerdyne makes the by pass valve. I changed my pulley and needed to install a by pass valve. The MAF is after the supercharger.

So what are you wondering, where to hook up the flange or where to hook the vacuum line. The flange if there isn't a spot there you'll have to buy an adapter or weld a flange onto the existing pipe. The line goes onto the vacuum tree somewhere, if all of the tree's spots are taken you'll have to use a T fitting on one of the hoses coming off the tree.

Make sure the valve is placed between the meter & the supercharger if you are venting to the atmosphere. If it's going back into the intake before the compressor then it wont matter much. It might upset the computer a little bit between shifts, but nothing major.
