65735, Removing Stage 1, got a question!
Posted by Attrayant, Feb-22-04 03:43 PM
Currently I have a HRC Stage 1 kit installed which I'm going to be removing soon. Everything will be coming off with the exception of the Cartech FPR and inline fuel pump that came with the kit. Here are my questions.

1. If I just set the fuel pressure to stock internals, there shouldn't be a problem, right?

2. I know that I will have to remove a vaccum line from the BOV to remove the kit, will this cause problems not being hooked up?

Basically I want to know if I can remove the turbo/manifold/downpipe and put headers on while leaving the aftermarket FPR and fuel pump just the way its installed without causing any problems. Thanks in advance!

It's fine. Since no boost is being made, then the fp won't rise, The fp should remain at the stock fp levels. I had my sfmu and accel inline fuel pump installed two months prior to boosting so I can speak from experience.

Are you selling the kit?

Yeah, kit is sold, is pretty much off the car with the exception of a few things but I didn't want to start it up without making sure there wouldn't be a problem.

you undid all the oil lines right? and how did you close the oil pan up where you tapped it, as for the vaccum line just seal it off some way or you will have one hell of a vaccum leak and idle really high.
