20289, Car is more responsive...

..I replaced my EGR vac line and other vac lines and ran the WG line to the manifold and my car feels alot better now...I think I had a leak somewhere and it was preventing me from spooling up and giving me trippy throttle response. Now my BOV goes off more often, car doesn't stutter at WOT, spools up quicker (can hear the spool more) and goes Boost Green on the A/F gauge. I recommend you replace your vac/ boost lines cuz the engine heat makes em hard and brittle. On a side note my EGR valve is KIA and my MPG sucks ass (I checked for valve movement while reving the engine)..I'll change out the transducer and place a check valve..if not I'll take out the valve and carb clean the mutha.
On another note...I got a new car..a 95 Integ Ls -stick..4 DOOR!..It's the new family car..It's gonna get some GSR rims, painted moldings, clears and maybe an intake (if the wifee sez it's ok) But nothing major..gotta keep it stock!
