Ok so I got everythign out I dont need now I have to deal with these two lines from teh firewall, I was hoping to get some advice on where to route them safely too as well, I don't want to halfass anything dealing with flamable gas, I've also heard something about a rollover switch in this area you aren't supposed to disconnect, but I didnt see anything like that in the service manual.


Line 1

Line 2

Thanks for any help!

sorry my car never had a charcoal canister.. even tho it is a 2g it came that way from factory..

Did you check your front drivers side corner...that's is where they moved it in the 98-99 years....

FYI, you linked to the same picture twice.

Thanks for pointing that out, I fixed it.

Is the charcoal canister the huge thing under the battery in most dsm's? I thought about removing it on the 1g but heard bad things, I didnt even want to mess with it on my 2g, but am very interested. I like to reduce vacuum lines, miscellaneous junk etc.

It pulls a CEL on 2Gs and nothing on 1Gs.

here is a pic or 2 of the shit that gets removed with an EGR block off plate

and then yank that can!

ALL THOSE vacuum lines on the throttle body too!?!?!?!?!?!?! Wow maybe I will need to that pretty soon then too.

I pulled all my solenoids too, REALLY cleaned up the firewall up top.

BTW k thx for answering my question AJ. =P

The old quest is gettin' this treatment too...EGR Blockoff plate, then take out related parts =)

But my bay might win when it comes to misc. wires/vac lines...

If you want to see a bare firewall just stop by QPR and take a look at my car, or I can take a picture for you.

can someone explain to me why you would pull this stuff out? is there a gain besides cleaning up your engine bay?

2lbs and I guess you could mount your battery lower if you wanted.

I am also thinking of blocking off the coolant lines going to the TB to try and maybe reduce intake temps.

This is what my engine bay looks like after some cleaning up, EGR and all emissions equipment gone, a/c gone, and cruise soon to leave. Also, 1g mas and 1g K&N instead of retarded stock aircan.
