N249 bypass

[Gooner_Mike]

I've left the blue circle one unattached unbunged

Is the rest correct then?

I run my DV the same way as Mike, Ric (reversed). As do a lot of people.

But it makes a squeek noise if I run it reversed.

Yeah rest look correct.. The circular one way valve should have a tube running to the other valve on the left hand sise of the engine bay.

Cheers mate! Are my thoughts correct (about what goes where)?

Also, removing the SAI (yes I have read your thread already) does what exactly?

Makes the engine bay tidy.

It has a pipe already with lots of junction from it. Should I replace this with a straight run of vacuum pipe then?

Might give this a go too then...

Yes.... (now runs out to the car and check)

Remove the lot altogeather, put 1 pipe with a T in from the manifold to the DV. Use the T for your boost gauge take off.

Anyone know what the round t shaped box does above the oil filter? Can it be removed? Looks ****... as I'm going to put my new valve cover on and want minimal pieces of crap being re-attached.

Its a air resivoir, Ric. I have ripped the lot out when I done the SAI removal

Cool, I can do that! Can you then just leave the rest of the vacuum pipes in place. I don't want to start taking things off when they might be used for something! I'm not fussed abut stripping it all off just yet, just want the slight gains that you get from doing this.

So if you dont have a boost gauge then you wont need the T-piece near the dv would just be 1 long piece of vacuum hose? Always thought about doing this but i just cant seem to get my head round it haha

Yeah but you need a resistor to make the ecu think that the n249 is still connected to the electrical harness.

If you did it like the pictures from page one you don't need any resistors

Will give this a go tomorrow I think! Cheers for the help/advice Ric and Damien!
