so I need lines going to the canister?(even if i dont use it?) cuz i dont have any going there...I have one going to the fuel pressure regulator...one to the BOV and one that goes to the Igniter chip that T's off to plug into the two lines that originate from the igniter chip. Is that correct? So there is a factory boost controller on the SR which i swapped? where is it? and what does it look like...I am running the FMIC Greddy...so no recirc valve...Joel said:Ok, if the piping is stock these are the main places:
-Rubber 90 deg elbow that comes off the compressor housing of the turbo.
-Rubber elbow that goes from the metal hot pipe to the metal elbow that leads to the intercooler
-Rubber hose that joins the metal elbow to the intercooler
-The factory Recirc valve that sits on the intercooler (if the vacuum line is disconnected it will leak really badly)
-The rubber pipe that joins the intercooler to the plastic cold pipe
-The rubber adapter that joins the plastic cold pipe to the throttle body
-The rubber pipe that joins the plastic cold pipe to the IAC valve in the manifold
-The rubber pipe that goes from the recirc valve to the intake pipe just after the air flow meter
-The rubber pipe that joins the intake pipe to the the EGR system
I think thats all of them
Undo each clamp and check the hose clamp for damage. If its bent in any way replace it - they are cheap anyway. Also clean the metal and plastic pipes off with a wax and grease remover (prepsol) to stop the rubber slipping off under boost.
There are also a number of 8mm and 12mm vacuum lines. These go from the intake manifold to the carbon canister, the factory boost control, fuel pressure regulator and recirc valve. There is also one that goes from the cold pipe to the wastegate system. These should be checked for splits and damage too.
sry but you emailed your number? Send it to my email [email protected]nismo200sx16 said:
ok...I have the bottom vacuum line(under the throttle body) going to the boost controller(i plan on upping the boost) and then it t's off to connect to the two lines that come from the factory boost controller. Is that correct? Then the top two lines go to the BOV and fuel pressure regulator...so I guess thats all correct...and thus having the lines to the canister not even beginning to go there.Joel said:
Sorry I meant to say that the line from the hot pipe goes directly to the wastegate located on the Turbo...the line that I said was "behind"...i meant to say under the throttle body where the intercooler pipe connects. The line starts from under that and then runs to the stock boost pressure regulator which t's off into the two lines that come from the regulator...MY car should be running right correct? I mean if not the vacuum lines...what else could be the problemJoel said:
