Simplified rats nets question


What's everyone with simplified rats nets using for fitting or ts for these hoses ? I feel like if it has too many ts it'll have more chance of leaks ?

Used metal vacuum union tees from Grainger, "Union Tee, 0.170 in, push in, brass, item # 2GUF2. https://www.grainger.com/product/PAR...rchQuery=2GUF2. this was for the 4mm hoses i believe, so you may need larger ones for some of the hoses

the actual rack itself is modular, and its almost divided by system, so i was able to remove the sequential turbo stuff and keep the emissions (in in CA, most would go the other way), and its all using the stock rack, and such

I would, if possible, try and use the stock rack and remove the extra lines from it if possible. It makes troubleshooting and figuring out which line goes where SO much easier.

As stated, you can remove a lot of the extra lines, many of the lines just bolt on to the rack. There are a few that you would have to cut out if you are really feeling adventurous.

If you do need a T, those brass T's linked would work great. ALWAYS use a metal T, plastic T's will fail on you!

I was finally able to get to work Abit more on the rx. And to my surprise when I took off all hoses off the solenoids, the nipples came ripped out right off, I tried to cut them first but nothing would do the trick even heat.. I accepted my fate and only one was able to survive, with this being said, I've been doing some research on simplified version & have some questions, is this still doable on stock / ecu? Will it take the car on limp mode? I'm still planning on keep air pump since stock ecu is staying. Since I'm here anyone got the solenoids for sale .
Thanks guys

you can remove what ever hoses you like from the rack (i kept the emissions, and boost control, but removed the sequential stuff), but you can leave the solenoids electrically plugged in the stock ecu will be happy

That makes sense, with me breaking the nipples off on those modules, & let's say don't plan on using the emission hoses but I'll keep the modules plug in, would I have to do anything with those modules example plug the nipple or anything in that nature

nope, the ecu only is looking for open or a short circuit
