Post What to do w/ cycling valve?

I know that this has been addressed before, but I forgot. I will be installing a dual port factory wastegate from SFR along w/ a manual boost controller. What is done w/ the cycling valve after the install. What do I block off or remove.

Lindsey Racing (see post below) gives a great explanation with pics of what tubes to disconnect and capp off.

My question is, Now that I have everything out of the way, CAN I REMOVE IT entirely? one of the lines fed into what I believe to be the crank case breather? What do I do there?

btw I hope what the fact ws man.s refer to as the "timing valve" is indead the cyclic valve. I dont see anything else in the general location besides the idle air stab. valve. <img src="confused.gif" border="0">

"Installing a dual port wastegate and boost controller eliminates the use for the cyclic valve which is located under the intake manifold at the back.

We need to address the old lines attaching it.

The metal line coming out from under the front of the intake manifold that used to be attached to the banjo bolt can be left alone and un-plugged. (RED)

The line from the cycling valve to the old wastegate can be left alone.

The rubber hose that used to connect to the second metal line (YELLOW) coming out from under the intake manifold (GREEN) needs to be plugged. Otherwise we have a intake air leak. You can leave the metal line open


Another option for this hose is to remove it and plug at the intake boot by cutting the clamp and pulling it out. (BLUE) You can slide a bolt or some other similar plug into the hole and install a hose clamp to secure it. You will need to remove the intercooler pipe (WHITE) to acess it.

This completes the installation of the wastegate.

Enjoy!."-compliments of the great guys at LR racing
