Title: KO4 DV discharge pipe
Post by: rich83 on January 29, 2012, 09:16:00 am
Hi chaps.

What's the point of the DV feeding back into the intake, does it serve a purpose? What happens if you remove the rubber pipe and block the port on the intake, so venting the DV to atmosphere?

It interferes with the running of the car as the ECU takes into account the extra air being recirculated and can lead to running problems such as stalling or a misfire.  Just best left alone imo
