if you have done it three times then there is something wrong with your car.

DO NOT just rip them all off as there are 77(i think) lines just for the sequential turbo system alone. unless you want a huge nightmare, i strongly suggest replacing them one at a time. also use silicon lines. if you have already ripped them all of, well then im sorry, for your sake.

i think toby was talking about FC's, you can simplify them to only 3 lines i believe. FD's are another ballpark

oh, were talking about FD's huh.
I havent "replaced" all my vac lines 3 times. Just once.
I have taken them off and put them on, 3 times befor.

And to be serious, I would recomend also to ("the less experienced") to NOT rip them all off there and to do it one at a time or lable them.

I was just kidding befor, hence the "LMAO" line.

Sorry for the confusion. Somtimes when Im "just kidding" It sounds like Im being serious.

On another note, I feel fine right now and am in a fairly good mood.

Untill next time (I post), for now, I would like to say, and incase any of you are sensitive to the latter form of "happy holidays",

Everyone have a Happy Freaken Holiday and a Happy Freaken New Year.

Later.

Is it really better to do one at a time even if I'm going from Stock Sequential Twin Turbo Setup to the Simplified-Sqquential Twin Turbo Setup?

I mean as it is, I'm going to remove a heck of a lot of Vacs.

wasnt a bad turnout at the ricer meet. Eat-Pez (greg, i think?) had a banging LS1. you shouldve been there when you took off, everyone over at the evo crowd was like...thats a RX! and me and jamin just laughed. then when all the ppl with the fc's left they, one dude was making excuses. toby, did u take a ride in the hybrid? (sorry if i temporarily jakced the thread). btw Eat-Pez, ru a member of the beemer forums? one guy said u looked familiar?

Ya, I'm Greg. and you should've been there about 2 blocks down the road. Some Integra boy wanted a piece of the action. After 2 lights of thoroughly stomping his *** (like 10 car lengths by the time I got out of 2nd gear.... seriously), he turned around.

The liked the launch? I got a couple of vids on youtube, search RXSevin. That's Sevin, like the poison.

and the guy with the red GTU that took a ride, you left you flachlight in my seat. PM me your # and maybe we can meet up before I leave, or maybe we can meet up when I drive through Cola on my way back to Gville.

nope, not a member of any beemer forum.

anyway, good times. see you guys at another meet.

it was more of a suprise than anything to them. they were like...waaaaait. thats not a rotary. and im like LS1 maybe? and all their heads turned. one of the guys who didnt have an evo but associated with them made excuses. but the others guys were like whoooa dude! thats crazy! one guy said "he sure loves that rev limiter" haha

Ya, with my new top end it gets to the high rpms quick, and the cam likes it up there. It really screams around 6k, rev limiter is at 6.2k. Since I've upgraded my top end, I can safely raise my revlimiter to 6.8k or so, but I haven't done it yet.

I haven't taken it to the dyno since I swapped the top end. With only a cam, it was 342hp/322tq. Since then I've added p/p/shaved heads, ti valves, ti retainers, hardened pushrods, roller rockers, ported MAS & TB. I'm pretty sure I'm at least 390hp now, maybe higher. Tucks nicely in a 2700lb car.

On slicks, it'll constantly do high 7's in the 1/8. That's at fully loaded interior and no weight reduction.

Check youtube. Search RXSevin, or my user name, eatpez.
