3. remove oem filter/regulator, wear glasses as fuel will spray when you remove the first line
4. swap in new filter, line from pump goes to the filter in,
5. line from out on filter goes to the regulator in either 3 or 9 oclock position, flow can go either way
6. line that went to tank on oem filter goes to the bottom port on regulator
7. install gauge onto face of regulator, use Teflon tape or paste, I prefer paste
8. small vac line from oem filter goes to small port on top of new regulator
9. mount new regulator to underbody bolt with supplied aem bracket
10. zip tie up the excess lines to secure them
11. have buddy turn key to on position without starting car, while your underneath watch the pressure gauge and get the regulator to 58psi
12. start car and verify pressure setting while running, the car will chug a few times on initial startup while it purges out the air bubbles
13. check for leak, recheck for leaks, after test driving check for leaks again, once all leaks are tightened up put the plastic shield back under the car and enjoy 



I don't see where he advises to "cap" any of the outlets. NOTE that instruction #8 says to hook up the vacuum line to the small port on top of the new adjustable regulator . . . Is that maybe what you're asking about??
I was conversing with Rob via E-mail when he told me that but then he sent PDF and it is as you posted so I will go with that. I wont be installing this until spring but I am curious if the pressure is increased with the boost approaching 19-20.
