all you gotta do is rip it out!!

but seriously, what are you after? is the car still on stock turbos? removing the rats nest would mean going non-seq. if the twins are still there. did you mean to post emissions removal? give a list of mods please.

yeah it's an FD
When I purchased it the owner said it was a poor mans non-seq. I assumed it was because there is no boost pattern, it just boosts straight to 10psi. The mods are down-pipe, blitz nur-spec exhaust, Power XS smic IC with the air box and air pump removed. Everything runs fine but I have a high idle after I attempted to replace some vacuum lines. So I just want to clean the bay up and get rid of the useless vacuum lines.

What part of SC are you at? Think that would better determine wich one of us can help you out. Also, like dregg100 asked, are you running stock ECU?

We could easily simplify your vac lines and replace them all. But again, what's your end goal? To replace all of the vac lines and double check that they are all connected correctly?

if you plan on going single you better get some sort of standalone very soon. you really should have a standalone on non seq, but some dont. now why do you want to clean it all out and rebuild the vaccum system if you are going single?

I will be getting a PFC and upgrading the fuel and ignition systems before going single. Rebuilding? I thought most of the vacuum lines are for emissions and sequential mode and by removing them you also get rid of the unneeded solenoids. I just want the cleaner look and less maintenance.

Hmm, well I was at DGRR so I guess she is running! And it wasn't that I couldn't figure out how to put then back in... it was just over whelming tring to put them all in and the 100 other things that I took off all due to - Oh, while I'm here I might as well replace _________.

Anyway, since then I've actually done it a few times while replacing a few other things.
