You know the two butterfly valves that open slowly b/c of the vacuum thing? Can I remove that and get better throttle response or is it something i should rather leave on there?

I've heard from some people that removing that will make the car hesitate when cracking the throttle open, on the t2 theres a spring on the lever going to the double throttle from the secondary, it dampens the opening of the secondary plates... probably there for a reason.



I havent investigated the t2 tb much though so i may be off.

I never had problems on my TB mod or TB mods I did for others. I hate those spring actuated plates. They are only there for the thermowax.

The TB mod said to go to rx7turbo.com. That site is not running currently. Is it down temporarily or permanently, anyone know?
