ive bypassed N211, N249 and SAI with only vacuum hoses, so everything is still electronically connected (all clutter still on rocker cover and SAI still in place, all vacuum pipes not used are blocked off and P007 vacuum goes directly to inlet manifold)

the car drives perfectly, but i did a scan and this error code came up:

16795 - Secondary Air Injection System: Incorrect Flow Detected
P0411 - 35-00 - -

i cleared the code and took the car for a drive (started from cold) and the code has not come up again

i just wanted to check if this is gonna cause any problems as im driving to belgium on monday and dont want to get stranded :s

Ignore it.

It only appears as you dont have a secondary air system plumbed it. You would get the same code if you ditched the system completely.

In fact i hardly ever get this code as i've binned the whole system completely.

coolio, thanks for that :)

i assumed it wouldnt cause much of a problem as i believe the SAI is only involved in cold starts anyway.

im looking forward to binning all the crap on my engine :)
