well the the carbon canister purge valve has a pip witch goes 2 them manifold so I thought u could put the valve in the pipe and it would let the small amounts of air in 2 the manifold and leave the brakes alone.

you connect them to the brake servo pipe aswell, which in my opinion is not a good thing

There uselless cause they do nothing except just make your engine bay a bit shinier... they make a shite whining noise aswell in my experience.

Weir is the best place 2 put a Ecotek valve on a corsa C 1.2 this is the Z12Xe engine should the valve go in the pipe which is connected 2 the carbon canister purge valve coz the pipe then connects 2 the manifold or should it go in the vacuum pipe from the brakes witch I think goes 2 the manifold?
And do the XE engines mind having the Ecotek valves fitted or do they curs problems?
Will the Ecotek valve work if I have a viper induction kit on the car?
