Just remove the black box and all lines associated with it.

You will be left with a connection on the throttle body that you will need to block off and a connection on the tip that will need blocking off (bit of silicone with a bolt in the end does the trick)

Then with the fuel breather line thats left over just extend it into the wing or wherever you want to vent (i used silicone to extend it just under the headlight)

I left the clicky valve electically plugged in and just tucked it out the way to avoid engine lights

Also if you trace it back through the loom it can be hidden under the scuttle panel near the ecu

what does removing this do ?

R4cup · Jul 27, 2011

Not a thing iirc, most peolpe do it to relocate intercooling pipping, well thats why im doing it lol

I've unplugged mine but only once have I had an EML, it can be resitored using the same resitors you use for N112 and N249 valves. DTC deletetion is better though.

tom w · Jul 27, 2011

I found the valve varies in resistance values when it vents so the 330ohm resistors worked for a while but then still brought on the light

joehirth · Jul 27, 2011

Haven't done the resistor so wouldn't know. Interesting though. I would get it mapped out anyway

hey guys, see the hose arrowed in the picture, it goes to the back of the head then down to the turbo? do i just block this off when i remove the carbon can? say at the side of the head? and block off the one to the top of the TB?

sorry for the question,
cheers

Yeah sort of you need to strip out all the pipework it becomes apparent once you start
