Dood, IMO, if you can't find the turbo, you have no business being under the hood, or even driving it. But that's just me being elitist. I'm all for educating him, but perhaps this guy needs some hands-on attention. (I won't do it. )
As for legacycontinues.. well, dood, you have this knack for pushing people's buttons, and, incredibly well, I may add. I've had to learn to put a BS filter betwixt my mouth and brain, so what's stopping you?

YES it helps a lot, i think i got it now, especially thanks for the pic.


btw, in the pic is that silver metal thing the coffie mug?, kinda funny? why would u put it there, better air flow???

also where the coffie mug is for u, i have some big black plastic thing, so i thing u swithced them around, can i ask y? and what was that thing?

Yep! really easy to do, sounds better too it replaces a big black boxy thing.. there are 3 hoses coming into the mug you have to make adapters for.. you see 2 in the picture, and one in underneathe. Search for the CoffeeMug and you'll find stuff!

k, thanks a lot guys, iwill lok into the coffie mug thingie, and now that all the questions are answered, i guess this thread can be killed (closed, or locked),

so let it be written, so let it be done.

And come on, at some point earlier in our car-modifying hobbies we were there... The interested amateurs learn best from the experienced hobbyists, and the cycle of life thus continues. Or something like that. Whatever.

A K&N panel air filter and the coffee mug are two good starter mods for this car. Good luck crappyrice!

thanks a lot guys

oh, i have one more question, does my car have a blow off valve.

Yes. It recirculates back into the intake. It's mounted to the underside of that plastic pipe at the rear middle of the engine bay that goes between the turbo and the throttle body.

Whaaats a throttle body?

ok this thread (w/al the smartmouth crap in it) is allowed to continue but jason locks the anti lag one before any real discussion can be had. hmmm.

but am i net suppesed to hear a woooshhh sound then?

cause all i hear is the wistle when i push the trittle, but when i take my foot off the throttle, i gont hear anything, is it mabye cause there is not enough pressure buildup, or is it becasue something is wrong?

The intake was designed to muffle the sound, which is fairly quiet to begin with since it's a recirculating valve and boost pressure isn't very high. If you listen very very very very carefully you might hear it.

you have to admit it was funny as hell how he locked it though

heh... yeah, he musta been having a bad day or something. That was rather amusing...

is there a diffference between a recirculating valve and a blow off valve, or is it just another name for the same thing?

Good god man! search!

One vents to atmosphere, the other vents back before the turbo.

ok, so can i switch the recirculation vlave for a blow off valve?

is that even a good idae?

i have noticed he can be a little "aggresive" in his locking. oh well.

rtfm?

That is too funny.
