My Si, has the emissions recirulation thing on the exhaust manifold, I have heard there can be a power gain from removing it?

So what needs to be done? what do I need to plug the holes on the manifold?

Will it cause any MOT emssions problems?

What will the power gain be?

Thanks

Sounds like smelly poop me. But what do I know.

we told u how to do that the other night percy and yeah you do get a power gain from it because it doesnt recurculate the carppy gasses that cant get thru your cat it obviously works better if you have a de cat pipe

I done it on my 16v 2i!

Was so easy!

I just paid MMo to do it!

T'is easy to to remove the Air pulse system apart from being a bit fiddley to get the system from round the manifold and the radiator gets in the way a bit.

o Undo the system from the manifold
o Do the fiddley bit as above
o Put washers and blanking plugs into the manifold and do up tightly
o Then for the vacuum hoses, I chopped it back to near the solonoid and plumbed it back into the inlet manifold.

Seems to work for me and its been like it for ages now.

Thats why I am getting more info on the actual procedure.

Just rip it all out and pop to ford for the bits.

[bcracknell]

how many blanking plugs and washers are needed? might try this on my little project car for a laugh..

This might seem harsh but it is fresh in the tuning section at present. And has been in tech probs too I beleive.
