Block Plates and Selenoid Questions =/
Alright I searched and got SOME info but now I need more input.




Ok in Pic 1 which ones can I block off? I know 2 for sure but anything else?

In Pic 2 which one is the EGR? Or has it already been removed?

1 is idle air control
2 and 3 you can remove. you only need to block 3.

uh idle air control. it controls the amound of air flowing past the throttle at idle to control the speed of the idle.

2 and 3 are automatic warm up system but 2 is just a passage that leads to 3. so if you block 3 you dont have to block 2

If you have a power FC you can block all in pic #1.

I MUST have a PFC? I honestly dont have the cash for it =/. Well I already took the other two off, now I need to order the block off plates. Where do the other plates in the kit go? Pics anyone?

[Edit] I cant just put a resistor or something on the connection for it? I already removed the Double Throttle sh*t.

put 300 ohm 1w resistors in the plugs and call it done.

doesnt the pfc still need the IAC to control the idle?

I'm not sure about the resistors, it might work. Shox, what do you mean by IAC?

the resistors work.

the pfc still needs the idle air controller to make the car idle correctly, number 1 in the first pic.

Thats a ISC(idle speed control) and a Power FC don't need it, its off mine right now. I'm not sure if the stock ECU needs it, but if your still stock I'd leave it.

There's no need to take the LIM off.

Wipe it off and drive around a few times, then look to see. Maybe you'll get a better idea where it comes from then.
