Throttle Bypass AT ?.
Have any of you AT guys done the throttle bypass mod on the car?
Where you able 2 tell a difference b4 and after? And might anyone have a vid on how 2 do it.. i keep looking at the pics but always seem 2 get lost on the last set of directions. Im thinking of trying this because i live in miami..and the summer is around the corner and man i know its gonna get real hot down here:Eyecrazy: , also because i have a KN V2. So if anyone can help it would be cool. Thanx Dominicano |
1. It's easy.
2. SEARCH !! :lol: ( i kid i kid) 3 . It's easy!! What part do you get lost on? All you really have to do is take off (4 10mm bolts) the TB from the UIM. Remove the 2 (two) hoses. one at top and one at the bottom of the TB. put one hose clamp on either hose. connect the 2 (two) hoses together with a 5/16 barb and tighten the ends down with the hose clamps. start car and check for leaks. I don't think I gained any preformance. but the intake charge stays ambiant in the winter. |

Im gonna try it on sunday..i have 2 because when i turn on the ac the car is getting hotter quicker and i cant stand to hear that noise...some times i get scare thinking that something bad is gonna happen 2 the engine.
|
Finally did the bypass ended up using a 3/8th for the bypass. For some reason it felt better to drive the car and i cant wait for a hot day..im gonna drive it around town for a bit and see if i get any MIAC when i accelerate.
|
After driving around since sunday i noticed that this little mod does help out a lot..the car does not have the annoying MIAC noise..all i have to do is get the MSP reflash and then ill get back to the serious modding. Rotors and pads are next the a couple of visual things.
