removing emmision vacuum lines
 
i have a question. when i remove these 4 lines. do i just plug up the 4 ports on the tb and just leave the 4 vacuum lines dangling?

Remove them instead of just leaving them hang. If you need a good reference for a boost gauge or controller, the "P" port works well.

Just leave the important ones, BCS, BOV, Wastegate, FPR, etc...

There was a diagram from Taboo that explained what needed to stay and what could go, but I can't seem to find it right now.

I saved these off Taboo's site before he skipped town. The first picture is what the stock system looks like. Pictures 2 is what it will look like after you remove the unnecessary junk. Picture 3 is optional. Hope that helps a little. It's pretty simple. And no don't need to keep those dangling hoses in there. When I did mine, I just ripped out all the unneeded hoses and threw them right in the trash. Good luck with it.

hey i noticed the ecaportation canister will be removed. wont that affect gas mileage? cuz my gas is really bad right now. i only get 200-225 per tank, thats like 17-18 mpg.

No, but removing EGR can make your gas mileage worse. 1G AWDs get bad gas mileage not matter what though. 7.8:1 compression ratio, AWD drivetrain, and heavy car for a 4 cylinder equals bad gas mileage.

With all the emissions removed, I was averaging around 25-27mpg on the freeway on my trip from AZ up to Minneapolis. I dunno if that's good or bad to you, I didn't mind it.

I would keep the can if I were you, I took mine out and gas fumes vent into my enigine bay......normally thats not a problem (no fire yet) the problem is if you keep your car in the garage, it can get really stinky

Re: removing emmision vacuum lines
 
do you guys think that i can just plug up that chamber so the fumes cant escape?

Shane@DBPerformance 10-26-2005 10:57 PM

Re: removing emmision vacuum lines
 
No, that catch can diagram assumes that the catch can has a breather vent on it.

hmm well i did think of that, but i would still rather have a vaccum line hooked to the catch can somewhere
