[QUOTE="Sagittaria, post: 10588927, member: 113330"] I have the opposite 'issue'. Did this mod about a week ago and the principle is sound. This mod is listed in several other places with similar instructions. So I don't know what to tell you there. I was driving around and the mod worked as described as far as faster boost/throttle response. I did have to reset the computer right after (threw an 02 slow response code on both banks) which I think had to do with the change of air/temp at low load (improper boost bypass was done before)... I don't know if these cars learn(?) or not but I cleared it and reset the computer. And it hasn't popped up since. But to my surprise a little whiles later I noticed a very noticeable but slow PSSSSSHH almost like a vacuum leak everytime I let off the throttle after giving it a bit of a pull. (Going ahhhh crap of course)... I've had lots of vacuum leaks/unmetered air problems with this car before. After revving it a few times I realized that it was definitely air being discharged out of the boost bypass valve... You can feel it hissing out. Almost like a blow off valve. I don't feel any vacuum in there though when idling. I don't know anyone else noticed this or not. That's just my experience though so take it for what it's worth :shrug: [/QUOTE]
