Yeah, let's cruise to the drag strip. Twin Turbos were meant for accelerating, not cruise control

I'm in. Just need to take out my cdv valve. Been meaning to do it for a while especially after last event I roasted the clutch off the line. Got a little over zealous with it

That valve is so stupid. I burnt the shit out of my clutch in my E90 once because of it.

If you know what you are doing it's 5m from jacking the car up to taking it down and driving out of the garage.

Supposedly you can just push out the restriction. I always bought new valves with it removed for like $20, then I read you can just push the stupid thing out.


@zero2sixtyZ You still double clutching and granny shifting with your CVD in?

I didn't bleed either of them...I used a Small C Clamp and basically no fluid came out. I know you are supposed to. On the XI it is a HUGE PITA to reach the bleeder screw. The RWD is looked MUCH easier to bleed...either way I didn't bleed them and have had no problems. Both clutches work flawlessly.

Shouldn't the system be able to bleed a small amount of air out?

I still haven't put the modified CDV in yet. Still sitting in my glove box. I haven't had a chance to put the car up on stands / high enough for me to get near the transmission. Maybe this weekend. Hoping to get a Motive Power Bleeder to let me do the brakes / clutch in the same weekend.

Fuck yeah! A P2AAF at the top of 3rd on my way home.

I'm going to replace all of the vacuum hoses this weekend with silicone. The question is ricer blue or red? This better fix my problem...if not needed I guess it is preventative maintenance for $20 bucks.

If you're not throwing codes, you're not extracted the optimal amount of power...

That's how I have started to feel about it. Oh a code, something to fix so I can keep going fast.

The lines have never been replaced so I'm hoping that is the issue...

edit: I bought this stuff if anyone is interested: http://www.verociousmotorsports.com/...-the-Foot.html The curing probably doesn't make a difference but it is small money.

You are talking about your car and not something else right?

You pull the codes yet? I'm going to guess misfire cyl 3 or 4.

If I'm not mistaken, a few weeks ago I pulled past you... With a fat Russian co-driver, and trunk full of tools.
