I'm in process of removing my 2012 Eaton and installing a 2014 TVS Supercharger,
The 2014 Elbow had no EVAP on it, just a hole with a plug in it.
Do I remove and install EVAP to the new Elbow?
Why would it not had one.?

I don't think you need an EVAP Adaptor for 2011 and 2012. I did for my 2010.

If the hole is plugged you need to remove the plug. If someone threaded the hole, the EVAP valve is not going to work.

Here's what I have. Yes they tapped threads and put a plug in it.

That's going to be a problem. The EVAP sensor has an o-ring around it that goes into that hole to seal off vacuum being pulled through that hole. If it's threaded, I would guess it will cause a vacuum leak.

Might check out BPS' oversized elbow. I believe it has provision for the later EVAP valve.
