they store vacuum (and pressure)so that they can slam the turbo actuators open (or closed)

Damn, that nipple broke off when I was replacing my vacuum hoses... I think I managed to drill and tap a new nipple but I was just hoping I could just remove it.

Only if you convert to non sequential.

Otherwise you have to replace it.

Where (besides Mazda) can you get one? I've looked around but I haven't found one yet. How much $$$ too. My half *** drill and tap job is holding though. Vacuum is a C. hair from 20"Hg!

I don't know how much money they are but i have 2...the little one that goes in front of the UIM and the one that sits behind the PS bracket. Since I just went non-sequential I don't need them anymore.
