  1. Vacuum line removal good. ;D I have a few more questions for you guys. I have this old aries with the mitsu 2.6. Tons of people are telling me that its a crap engine / crap car but hey it says "hemi" on the side and thats funny as hell in itself. Anyways, this car weighs in at 24-2500lbs and the block of the 2.6 is good by all I have heard. The car looks BAD...but with its lightweight and a turbo this thing could theoretically fly right? Can't get more sleeper than a f***** K-car. I already have a TD05-12a? turbo, stock conquest exhaust manifold on the way. Apparently the wastegate is set at 11-12lbs boost? (conquest turbo) Correct me if I'm wrong. Now I have a few problems with this setup, first is its carbureted, I've looked into going with a blow through carb system and I know I have to have a 1:1 fuel pressure increase so the floats stay full. But what happens to the vacuum stuff? Most importantly, the vacuum advance on the distributor? If its a turbo engine how is the VA supposed to get a vacuum at all? When its boosting (at high rpm) should the timing be advancing with the mechanical advance or with both? At low RPM before the turbo starts to create boost the VA should be advancing right? I guess what I really need to know is what do I have to do to the vacuum advance on the distributor so I can convert this to a turbo setup? Is there any difference? What do I do about the vacuum accessories that need vacuum at all engine RPM like the a/c? What about those vacuum caps to eliminate those other vacuum lines? under boost wouldn't they pop off? thx for any help <img src="http://www.starquestclub.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
