questions that need answers!

Okay im going single turbo... and got 2 simple questions.

1) I took out my extra flaps in the throttle body, and some other useless stuff...

but now it doesnt look as if my throttle body is opening up all the way... i can turn it completely open from the side (where the cable connects)... and it still has a little more room to open ( i can push it a hair more open with my fingers.)

is there a way to fix this?? or is this WOT?

2) Im running dual bosche's... will i need to just run push lock line the whole way from back to front?? or can i use the stock hard line??

i dont know if it will allow for enough flow.... im shooting between 4-450 powerwise...

so is the stock hard line usable???


thanks

just run -8 steel an line supply and return. you probabaly can run stock line, but y risk running out of fuel. Also your stock filter can not flow enough fuel for 450hp. you will need to change it.

It doesn't matter if the flaps are just a hair short of full range at WOT. The restriction to flow is nearly the same.

alright, thanks for the quick answers...

so do people usually just remove the hard lines all together and put the steel braided lines in its place?

and about that WOT question... it just seems like if it opened up a little bit more, it would flow slightly better. but i dont know... i asked my buddy with an FC and his did the same thing.

I know when i took it off the car it was opening all the way up... then when i took the cruise control peice off (that the cable goes in) it never opened fully.
