I'm not sure what you mean. "S5 6psi"... I take it you have a series 5 TII and have 6psi of boost, but should be making more.

What I do'nt get is, what you think are not opening and want to wire open?

Not 6psi, 6pi, as in six port induction.

2FAST7S, without the air pump, they won't work. Reinstall it.

Why? As many, many, many people on this forum have said..."By wiring you gain nothnig up top, but loose down bottom".
Just fix it so it work like its designed to do. Oh btw...your VDI doesent work either w/o the airpump.

What he said. You're currently down about 30hp, all to loose a few pounds of weight and the fraction of a hp the air pump takes to drive it. Just reinstall it.

It was all just lazyness on my part....A while back my omp went(got a used one) and took the air pump out in order to install it. Just to save time and effort(LAZY) I cut the belt and never installed the air pump again. Didnt drive the car either, just figured i'd do the "belt/wired open ports" thing....
I got off my ***, and installed the air pump with new belts and its back to normal now!
thanx for the help!!!

I had my auxillary ports wired open. If I had it to do all over again, I would have left them working, or got Pineapple sleeves instead.
