Please DO NOT Post In The General Section

From this point on until otherwise briefed, posting in the general section of Performance Tech is prohibited. The only thing to remain here will be the stickies. We would just delete this section, but that would cause unintended results.


The majority of the threads created can appropriately be placed in one of the Performance Tech sub-forums or Technical; and the posting of them here is detrimental to the activity of said forums. If you have any questions about where you need to place your thread PM me or one of the other mods.


For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.


Everyone will get a couple of warnings from here on out, after that I just start deleting threads.

Again if you have any questions, PM me or one of the other mods.

    If you are talking about the vacuum box attached to the firewall, then yes you need it....

      Just plug it. It goes to the stock intake resonator. That resonator can choose to take air from the fender well or behind the headlight depending on which is more optimal. That vac line opens and closes the mechanism that switches the air intake path between the two previous options. Since u have to take out the entire assembly to even put in a cold air intake then it serves no purpose when turbo'd. You can take the line off all together and plug it up.
