N112 Bypass

[Mat]

Now please don't shoot me down for asking this, I have searched and read first couple of pages of this thread

Anyway, what size vacuum hose do I need? I have a feeling its 4 or 5mm. I found 3mm on eBay, but want to double check what size.

also getting resistors from here

edit:

ordering these ones

it says power rating 10W, but the title says 9W.

Next one up is 11W

should the one in the link be fine?

4mm

 

[Mat]

sweet. thought it was. cheers fella

 

[DPJ]

or 5mm

 

[s1l3nc3r]

but not 3mm

 

[Mat]

dammit.

which is it?

guess can't go wrong wi 5mm (putting my faith in you Dave)

 

[DPJ]

I use 5mm Forge tubing, except where I use 8mm.

Personal choice. Plenty of people use 4mm....

ha ha, jeez..... you don't half complicate things

The resistors in the link are the ones 99% of us used and 4mm vac lines will be the best option for you mat

I use 4mm vac line and these resistors clicky.

Cheers myki and damo

now without sounding stupid, when i "attach" the vacuum lines, do they just push on? or need cable tying or something so keep them on. I would assume not much pressure is goin through, and should just plumb on

damo: you got pics of your engine with that resistor in? abviously the other type can me made discreet by wrapping in tape, just wondered how you'd hide that

 

[Damoegan]

I have just pushed them on as they are vaccume lines so sock themselvs on.

 

[Myki da Pyki]

Yep no need to tie them or anything just pop them right on and your all set

 

[Mat]

cheers again. Guess a search would have answered my questions

...they never contain boost?

Best I've got for now Matt http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=200030

I'm waiting on Issem getting me some of the plugs that are actualy on the N249 & N112 valves so I can make them up properly (and have them removeable)

That was a question, not a statement.
All mine hold boost (except the servo line that has a non-return). I've got clips on.
