Steviekid Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 The 90 degree pipe could be a direct replacement for the intercooler pipe that goes to the throttle body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayman Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 If you fit the BOV like you say welded to a pipe near the throttle body does it make much difference to the sound etc, would it be louder than the stock placement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan_blue Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 ok just fitted the vacuum lines and taken the car for a spin. there is an adjustment nut on the bov, is it normal to adjust them? the reson i ask is that it struggled a little bit on starting and seemed to be more harsher accelerating and perhaps alittle lag. any help would be appreciated. thanks al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
