Cool first custom built part for my 7

I can't find the post but someone showed how to make a simple and cheap fix for 5/6 port activation on an s4 with the air pump. They made it for around 20 bucks I didn't take my time choosing parts so it cost me about 50, its overkill but itl do... I hope.



Thanks again 7 club

hey just wondering i did the same thing how did you go about testing it to make sure it works properly? how far do you have that valve open? i have no idea if mine works haha. i could put grease on the little actuator arms and take a quick ride around the block to see if theyre working but thats not a sure way to know if theyre kicking on at 3800 rpms. thanks much

you get that tested out yet? I took mine off. i got a rotary performance racing pipe on right now it has the little connector to activate the 5 6 ports. i need to find a piece that will connect the bigger hose to it to so its running properly.

Hurm... I've done this as well, and since I apparently missed this post originally I need to point out...

Toilet "braided stainless steel" hose is actually cheap and meltable plastic hose ^_-

That's overkill. You can do the same thing with much smaller fittings/Valve(think aquarium parts) and only vacuum hose.
