gtmuzz Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Sorry If this is in the wrong section! Got an ep82 starlet, basically standard. Its got a bailey BOV,cat back exhaust and a blitz filter.so far Ive changed the plugs , uprated the leads, serviced it , changed belts and some gaskets, basically cleaned it up and gave it a bit of paint So I was bored yesterday and decided 2 make my own relocation kit for the air filter,to make it into the bumper.Piping was no problem had plenty spare bits kicking around.But need to know what to do with the 3mm piping that went 2 the standard pipe?Do I still need 2 attach it 2 my new piping?Also the problem with the boost rising, causing the fuel cut. What would be the quickest and more importantly the cheapest way 2 solve this?????Some help would be much appreciated ta Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 The 3 pipes going over the cambelt cover is for the hi/lo boost solenoid.When/if you upgrade to a HKS actuator, you can get rid of the lot, but for now I am sure you can just block the pipe off that isnt going anywhere due to the filter relocation.Boost creep is always going to be a problem with the shorter intake, try restricting the induction kit by warpping something wround it to stop as much air getting in.But the best way is to get an adjustable actuator (holds boost better) and port the turbo wastegate Hope this helps Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bluebear Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I think dub_se7ven used a bit of plastic foam (the kinda stuff you can find in packaging sometimes) wrapped around his to combat boost creep. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
