This is for anyone who's worked on a GTiR swap or any car with individual
throttle bodies.
We're trying to figure out why it won't make any appreciable amount of
vaccuum. Well, I noticed there are a lot of vaccuum reference ports on the
intake manifold, right by the head, downstream of the throttle bodies. On
cars with a single throttle body, you always take vaccuum AFTER the throttle
body (usually the plenum or intake manifold).
So I guess my question is: should all the vaccuum lines source from
downstream (after) the individual throttle bodies on the bottom of the
intake manifold?
Maybe this is a dumb question. Another shop performed the swap for a
friend, and we're trying to straighten it out for him. I amazed out how
poorly the work was done. The car wouldn't pull over 5k when he got it to
us. Wastegate was disconnected, fan shroud/line melted. Disconnected
vaccuum lines and bosses just left unplugged. JWT 4bar program and it had
like 65lbs of fuel pressure. 20* of timing (T3/T04e turbo!). It was a
MESS!
Thanks in advance...
