I am doing an emmisions removal and I need to know if I can block the ASV off if I'm keeping my power steering. I've read and searched but noone has written if they have done it or the effects. Also, I am running a T67 turbo kit and I want to know if I need any of the solenoids ( Twin scroll) or can I ditch all of them? Can I run a hose from the lower oil filler neck nipple to the ground and cap off the upper or do I need the purge valve? Please help me out I need to get my 7 back on the road!!!!!

 

Just remove the plug from the ASV and go for a drive to tell if you can live with/without it.

 

My car is in pieces right now and the motor is on a stand. I was hoping someone who has taken it off could tell me if it's OK.

 

i was fine without it.

if you have aftermarket turbo manifold you dont need the twin scroll.

if you have not cats, then you can remove all other emissions stuff.

if you have cats, you need almost all of it, better to just leave it alone.
