what year is the engine, turbo or non turbo, and is it a jdm engine/intake manifold? if so, the one facing straight up is for the brake booster on rhd vehicles. a picture of them would be very helpful.

I stole this jpg off this site. So, are you taling the slanted one aft of the BAC? etc?????

Pay no attention to the circle. It belongs to the person who posted this jpg originally.

Well, things are routed as shown in the jpg. Air goes from the intercooler........to the air bypass valve/solenoid..........to the large nipple aft of the BAC.

Air Bypass Valve/solenoid opens on startup for 17 seconds.....passes air from the intercooler thru the air bypass valve/solenoid to the large nipple then into the dynamic chamber. Done on cold starts.

Where's the nipple that *sticks straight up*?

Lost password because I cleaned up my computer and deleted a number of items (forgot password).

Changed from AOL to Att.net since I was HAILERS.

Wrote this site explaining the problem.

No response from this sites MODERATORS.

Re-registered under a new name. HAILERS2.

They must work for the emergency 911 system. Called 911 this night because a piece of white trash woke me when he was banging (slapping) on my car with his hands. Told him to blankity blank get off my blankity car and off my property. Called 911. Waited............and waited...........and waited. No response. Called again. Waited...waited.......waited.......called a third time..........told them there was no hurry, the sucker was down on the ground and looked like he was dying. Waited a little bit and a Emergency/Rescue big *** rig pulled up to save the suckers life. Cops showed up about ten minutes later. Total wait was over thirty minutes.

Lesson is: If you call 911, tell 'em someone is down on the ground and dying or they're having a heart attack. At least the Emergency/Rescue truck will show up. Cops???? I suggested to the lady on the 911 line that if I had parked my car with the wheels on the curb, there would have been a cop there in five minutes to give me a ticket for illegal parking.

The *cop* that showed up wasn't a real cop. It was a broad dressed up playing cop. I bet she can really write up a ticket in a hurry if you park illegally, but that's about it.

Second lesson: Shoot first and have a shovel at the ready to bury the sucker in the backyard. A bit more effort to dig a suitable hole but you avoid the frustration of waiting for a cop.......who isn't a real cop. Country's going to heck in a hand basket.

Won't work. It can/will only give a new password to HAILERS2 not HAILERS.....because of the change from AOL to another server.

I'll handle this thru PM's and stay off this nice thread.
