Vac line removal. Help!
http://www.dsmtuners.com/sub.php?page=1gtstage0power
The first thing they list there is to unplug and close off the vac lines on the TB. What do you guys think? They are such a pain in the ass, I have a vac leak and rather than finding it, I would rather just get rid of the whole bitch! I dont know if the clusterfuck of vac lines, T's, and connectors is stock but whoever (mitsu or otherwise) did my vac lines was a fucking moron. Would you guys do it? Will I be throwing codes all over? I would like some input please guys!

Re: Vac line removal. Help!
Here man check this out, i just did the same thing, i hated all those vacuume lines. Once you block the egr off with a plate just about every vacuume line is gone
 But i used dsmlink to ignore all the sensors that had vacuume lines going to them.Here is my post i have a few pics there that might help you out before i took all the vacuume lines out. Just follow the diagram that Blackcrow64 put up for me or anyone else that needs it http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=580449

Re: Vac line removal. Help!
Thats balls-ass amazing. I wonder why I didnt see that, I have been reading basically every thread for like 14 months now.
Edit: ahhh, it was in the problem diagnosis section. I'm not generally too good at diagnosing fromt some people's half assed desciptions of whats going on and the horribly poor grammar/punction from many noobs that post in there so I tend to stay out.

Re: Vac line removal. Help!
So if you remove your egr hose will any check engine lights come on. I hate having to clean a dirty intake manifold all the time.

Re: Vac line removal. Help!
Yeah, I think I can deal with the CEL's. I'd be tossing like 5 codes with no vac lines wouldnt I?

Re: Vac line removal. Help!
 Ok. I sure as hell hope nothing serious happens where the CEL is actually something going bad, not just emissions shit! I am going to pull them all off tomorrow and take a picture of the rats nest of vac lines I have. Quite a PITA.

Re: Vac line removal. Help!
Ha, they never check our shit here in MN! Good thing too, I would probably be in some trouble.

Re: Vac line removal. Help!
here in texas, all they do now, "emissions being a serious problem" is on 96 and newer, they make sure the cel works. if it does, and its off; congrats, you pass emissions! if not, or older then 96, you get a muffler probe... I'ed fail that with flying colors... but, i "passed" emissions just the other day... lol (i'm an inspector)

Re: Vac line removal. Help!

Re: Vac line removal. Help!
Well, I got around to redoing those vac lines today. Its sooo much less complicated, I love it. Can I take those 3 emissions dealies out or should I leave them plugged in? I also capped off the charcoal canister and valve cover breaker lines. You guys should see my T fitting for the BOV hose to the WG. They didnt have any small plastic ones so I had to make one from 3 screw in nipples and a 3 hole threaded block. It weighs like 13 lbs and is like 2.5 feet long
. Noooo, but its freakin huge anyway  .
