Air Filter Relocation HELP

[haggis]

There is a vacum hose on efi pipe... relocation doesnt have a place for this hose . What to do ?

[H_D]

block it off from the inlet

[haggis]

Hose goes to hard pipe next to rocker cover ?

Pipe goes from efi to a hardpipe near rockercover ... someone must have come accross this ?

[Bug679]

just block it off like was said already

Put a picture up of your setup will help

[haggis]

Went thru the toyotagt forums and eventually found to leave it vented as it relieves pressure from actuator

[StuDoc 72]

You said in your first post its a vac pipe. Now it relieves pressure which one is it?

If its connected between the EFI pipe and the rocker cover then its got nothing to do with the actuator.

[StuDoc 72]

So now from looking at the thread you bumped up you mean the pipe from the recirc valve.

As said in the first response to you block it off at the manifold so the mani does not draw in air.

The other black pipe at the bottom of his picture makes the hi/low boost solenoid work. if you have relocated your filter I assume all the black EFI pipe work is gone so just loop the hose back onto the solenoid or remove the solenoid altogether. You then need to vent the top nipple on the actuator to the atmosphere not the recirc valve or the vac pipe on the mani.

okay cheers stu. yes its the pipe going to actuator. i will just leave it open to atmosphere.

would like to just remove the solenoid altogether but cant find tutorial

cheers

Solenoid is very easy to remove, if you just look at the pipes and where they go it's very straight forward

Edit: This is mine removed

Onbviously when you relocate the air filter the actuator vents to atomsphere then one vaccum line from the dump valve up to the inlet

okay guys so fitted today and left actuator hose venting to atmosphere "tie wrapped" to side of dump valve and now the car wont boost past 2 bars (little green lights)

[dan106]

Take the pipe of the actuator port and just leave the metal pipe there

If that port is blocked or blanked off it will run low boost

This is mine after I relocated the filter

okay mate cheers dan will go try now

[haggis]

okay so remove actuator hose from metal pipe and still not boosting properly

checked all hoses and look fine . efi pipe was bastard to get and got a bit ruffer then i would of liked with it but dont see any cracks in intercooler pipework

are you supsoed to relocate oil filter as the hose is hard up against it ?

any chance the filter is not pullong enouhj air in ?

peed off

[haggis]

oh and seems to get 3 bars when light throttle low gears but when i pick up speed or put the foot down it instally drops to 2 bars

sounds like a boost leak

Put up some pictures of what you've done

right MASSIVE SCHOOLBOY ERROR...

basically the filter has like a circular hardstop inside (almost same size as intake pipe ) and i had bottomed it out on the pipe haha

moved it back an inch or so and now its boosting like a champ

infact its well more rapid off the line now so worried im actually getting creep

got decat, jam ecu etc but not uprated mani or front mount yet so para i melt a piston ( need to get a boost gauge)

so thumbs up to monstermotorsport for this one however the pipe is a fair bit longer than it needs to be ( got about 1.5 in clearance from rad and just shy of hitting the bracket in the middle where the bumper latch is)

also the rubber elbow is hard up against oil filter which is a bit scary

[Bug679]

What all have you done to this car man ? And you've no boost gauge but a jam ECU and decat ? Have you turned the boost up ? What's happening here

I don't want to read anymore of this post, it's not looking good

You said it man but am gonna start following it now 🙈💨👀

[haggis]

nah standard actuator and boost, gauge on order
