[QUOTE="metaman, post: 11048081, member: 23647"] Your blower will run hot if you do the old switch the lines deal. You will start generating heat idling in the staging lane and before and after burn out. Then when you actually run, you will hit higher air intake temps sooner and pull timing. You must not have done the mod correctly. My car runs perfect with it. If you take the time to understand how the boost actuator and vacuum system works, you will discover that this mod does not change anything about how much fuel the car is getting, unless you rig it up wrong and starve your FRPS for boost. If you air fuel is that high with this mod then you must not be getting a boost reference at the FRPS sensor. You are supposed to have one line that goes to the actuator and the FRPS sensor coming off of the bottom port on the back of the blower. Should be cake to set up right. If you feel vacuum on the bottom port on the actuator when you blip the throttle that makes sense. It makes sense because inside the actuator there is a rubber diaphragm that moves up and down with the actuator rod. As it moves up it will pull a little air through the bottom port like a plunger in a toilet. It is standard practice to hook up twin screw blowers using this type of vacuum set up without all of the factory crap in place. Many tuners that are very reputable set up cars with the lines reconfigured like this. That is where the idea came from, experienced tuners. All I did was take their info and pictures to it. [/QUOTE]
