The following content is copied from the Taboo Speed Shop. All credit goes to the Taboo Speed Shop. It shows diagrams and information regarding the removal of the emissions and vacuum lines.
I’ve noticed a few threads with people looking for these pictures since the website is no longer available. A wiseman suggested that I post them in a tech article so here they are. I was going to include the original text from the taboo site, but the site does not support the right click function. I put links for the archive of the site on the bottom of the page if you would like to view this text.
EDIT: The original text was sent to me by Pube Stache and I have included it in the article. I’ve also received a few PM’s about the advantages of this mod. The primary function of this mod is to clean up the engine bay by reducing the amount of visible vacuum lines. Although the power gains from this mod are minute your car will run “cleaner” due to the lack of EGR. If you don’t know what EGR is, here is a helpful link: http://www.ukcar.com/features/tech/E…echno/exgr.htm
2g Before and normal vacuum wiring:
2g After:
The WGS, FPS, EGRS and EVAPS ports don’t need to be
plugged. However, leave them plugged in to prevent the ECU
from throwing CEL and plug the port of the evaporative
canister hose on the turbo inlet hose after you remove the
canister. The boost gauge may be ran off the “P”port of the
throttle body or the FPS line.
Also found the diagrams for the 1g-
1g Before and normal vacuum wiring:
1g After (I’ve got 2 different pics):
The WGS, EPS and TVV ports don’t need to be plugged. However, plug the port of the evaporative canister hose on the turbo inlet hose after you remove the canister (not shown). The boost gauge may be ran off the “P” port of the throttle body or the FPS line.
1G After- With Catch Can and FPS Removed:
The fuel pressure solenoid can be safely removed. Its function is to increase the fuel pressure on start-up by closing the vacuum path to the fuel pressure regulator which is suppose to prevent the fuel from evaporating when the engne is hot. This is not a problem when high volume fuel pump is being used or might take just a bit more cranking in case of completely stock fuel system.
