Kenne Bell 2.3 question...

[Boost_Addict]

Hey guys, I recently went to a KB from Turbo but when I was turbo I did an EGR delete. I didn't need the boost bypass accs so I only kept the barometer and deleted all other useless vacuum lines.

Now that I have the KB on I don't have a vacuum line to hook up to the Bypass valve that's on the blower. My questions are as follows, 1. Is it ok to drive it without the bypass valve hooked up? 2. Where does the vac line that hooks up to the bypass valve on the blower come from? Pics would help me tons! Thanks gang! :tu:

just to give you an idea of where and which line it is, and I think its routed around the back of the blower and hooks into a boot(has 3 lines in one boot) in the upper intake plenum, if my memory serves me correctly


edit...

I found one of my old pics, and if Im right its one of the red lines you can see going in to the boot on the upper plenum

It is not ok to run without it.

It just needs a manifold vacuum signal. It will overheat and LOCK down quickly if you drive without it...

Ok cool... Thanks guys, Thanks Terry!

I'm glad I asked before I drove it.
