Hose swap trick

The infamous hose swap trick

hoses AFTER swap

after your air filter or airbox is the AFM(air flow metre)...on the side is a solanoid the size of a medium torch battery..it has 2 hoses going to it..one from the air intake(small branch off elbow) goes to the top point the other (bottom) goes down to turbo(wastegate actuator)....take the bottom one off the solenoid and put it on the little intake branch/elbow that was origionally the place the top one came from...ok...then loop the top hose,still connected to solanoid, down to where the bottom one came off...basically you loop the solanoid back on itself and put the other hose across to the intake...this is a trick to get faster spool up and many dont advise it-i personally like the effect,but sometimes hit the boost cut-out if excelerating too fast ...you soon learn how to drive hard with it like this but a boost guage is a must! ........this mod takes about 30 seconds to do with pliers, open the hose clips and swap around.....go for a drive sraight away - notice the difference?!!
