Anybody got thoughts opinions on the damper delete? I know they put it on for a reason.

Good question. Anyone had problems after removing the damper?

Well this is ironic in relation to my just asked question about deleting damper!

Hopefully you get it solved and we all learn something new.

I don't feel any problems with deleting the dampner but I also don't have a fuel pressure gauge or a/f ratio gauge hooked up right now. The boost problem I had was a hole in one of my vacuum lines. I no longer have that boost issue.

I so happy that you only had minor damage to your car. I had this happen to my 86 2 yrs ago and i wasnt so lucky . I bought my 87 a month later and this was the 1st order of business, fuel hoes getting changed out. Good luck with the sale.
