New method to put PSE in All-time Sport Mode

Essentially disconnecting the pink speed signal wire on the back of the PSE relay connector (what the relay plugs into) or cutting the relay diode does the same thing as all the diode does is prevents current from going into the speed signal line.
To get at the pink speed signal wire, you have to get at the back of the replay support bracket, which is held in by one bold and a hinge clip. It is not that hard to do, just very awkward get up into the drivers footwell.
Pulling the relay out and working on it at a bench is much easier, and I would suggest rather than cutting the diode, that you desolder it from the relay on one side, that way you can always put it back.
This will keep the dash switch operative and disable the speed dependent "quiet mode" .

Yes, if you unplug the vacuum line, you'll need to plug the hose with something.
If you don't care about turning on and off the PSE, then just pull the relay completely out. It takes all of 5 seconds.

One reason is you would want to cycle that valve once in awhile.... if you dont, it will eventually seize up. That valve is the main reason why the PSE is very expensive.... there have been alot of PSE with internal rattles.... the valve or not have the exhaust gas flow into the other chamber may be the source of the rattles.... you dont use it, you loose it.

I think I have noticed mine rattle once in a while, around maybe 1500 RPM when I am just starting out. The valve had been active for 5 years, so I don't think it has seized up. May just be a normal occurance...
