What are your mods and did you do the full conversion?

I'll throw up my sig so you can check my mods. As far as the full conversion, not yet. I'm still doing the poormans method. I'm trying to figure out what hoses / solenoids i want to remove before i start to dismantle everything.

thanks

Ok, I did my vacuum routing different than this because I wnet to the full conversion and I have a PowerFC. Therefore let me ask, what is wrong with diagram?

The diagram shows routing for the turbo control, precontrol, etc. I dont need those. I'm trying to figure out what solenoids and vacuum lines i can remove and / or cap off. I'm also really concerned with the fuel pressure regulator and the best way to leave it hooked up. I will not be going back to sequential, but i will have to pass a smog (not visual) test next year. I have a California car, so i need to decide what to do about the EGR stuff. I will be going to an Apex PFC soon, probably before the smog test unless i find out it will be too much of a pain to throw the stock computer back in for it. Basically, I'm trying to plan out the best course of action for these mods: Non Seq, Apex PFC, larger injectors, and a simpified vac system.

Thanks for the help.

well you have to do it this way if you are doing poormans way, because you have no way to keep the turbos both online....meaning the turbo control door in the exhaust manifold has to be open, the CCV in the y-pipe has to be open and those are the two big things. This plumbing allows those actuators to be held in the correct position. If you have the full non-sequential conversion, then you don't have to keep the solenoids because the actuators have been eliminated. The fuel pressure solenoid is the one in the back of the solenoid rack and you can just leave it alone. I have some information about all of this in the kit. I'll send you a copy of the instructions so you can read them now.

I took off my turbo control actuator and coat hanger'd the gate open to the braket the actuator was mounted on. On the CCV, i just unpluged & capped both vacuum lines going to the actuator. So in reality i'm not really using the solenoids. Right?

LOL -- I hadn't thought of the "Jimmy rig" solution. Oh well it if works, then you are ok. I've got to run right now, but I'll post some more info on the all out non-sequential conversion. Basically with the non-seq and the block-off plate kit .. the entire solenoid rack goes and you take the fuel pressure solenoid and put it back in the car. It cleans up the engine real nice.
