also another quick pre-empt, dont try and say the throttle body is partially closed during idle because thats not true either


did YOU ever do your little paper test?


if you can give me some other reason to believe that the spring would be loaded i will go pull off the hose myself and check


Tech...

You do realize this ISN'T a valvetronic car we're talking about? The throttle valve is only barely open at idle. There is vacuum in the intake manifold, and just slightly less than atmospheric pressure in the pre-compression side of the intake tubing. Once the turbo's spool, the pressure created then fills the intake manifold and the intake tubing, POST-compressor side... Then you take your foot off the gas, and the throttle valve closes. All remaining boost in the manifold is immediately sucked into the cylinders, and the remaining boost in the post-compression side of the tubing is vented.


If you're claiming that the throttle valve is OPEN at idle, you're imagining your 335 has valvetronic, which it doesn't.

Im so f-in confused right now with everyones arguments. It honestly doesnt matter to me because Im not doing it. But... I did notice at idle and partial throttle that the tubes only blew out, never in.

Teknochild,
The valve is controlled but the small vacuum hose on top of the DV.
Its that vacuum i'm refering to.

You don't seem to understand how the DV works, and the direction the valve open.

Found this site while looking for pictures to explain to you how it works.

Read this.

^^I will do a video of exactly what the valve is doing... THERE IS NEVER ANY AIR GOING THROUGH THAT VALVE INTO THE POST COMPRESSION INTAKE SYSTEM.

Met with Alex today (Red Star Rising) and we did on my car. The hose does not suck air at all, it's always going one way only. Here's a video, I could see a difference on the noise at any time reving or driving and letting go off the gas. Nice meeting you Alex, sorry the TT did not work on yours...

The nay-sayers fell silent because you fail to listen to reason and logic, or even fact based advice. You're happy with your mod, and that's all that counts.

TT feels strong, very nice upgrade for the car. The turbo is louder now...

Caught this one late, but his mod will work with no il effects. I'd suggest you butt the air intake hoses together with a fitting rather than the ghetto-tape job, but it serves the same purpose. Nice way to vent off a little turbo heat and get a "blow off" valve effect for no cost.

That's how I did facing the hoses upwards.

Im actually gonna plug one of the hoses themselves. I'm thinking that all the air forced out of one tube alone will make the blow off louder.
