FMIC = my car sucks ?

Hmm... The clamp at the far side of the hose coming off the intake manifold looks sort of off... Very loose, in fact, as it looks to be half off the hose itself... I'll photoshop a pic to show you what I mean; The problem is circled in green. =)

he hsanotherpic that shows that area mor closely...its titght on there just have on and off for some reason......still i thinkits the bov dump so close o the maf
 
Yeah, I saw the other pics, but I was just mentioning that one clamp. =) I, personally, would adjust it, but then I'm picky like that. ;)
 
He did mention that the car drives fine for the first 20-30 mins...I think one of you hoses heats up and gets smaller so the clamp doens't clamp as well anymore...Ahhh the beauty of running a blow through setup :) Plus, that recirc. tube looks to be too close to the maf.

that's why you should tighten after you drive the car a bit!

Dude, when hoses heat up they expand. I have a feeling that he might have some plastic tubing somewhere that is expanding too much and losing substantial boost pressure that way...are you running hardpipes throughout?
 
hey DJ,
the problem is the return pipe.
that's it.
move it and the problem will be solved.

TOO CLOSE TO MAF.

return pipe has to be 7-10 inches from the MAF


P.S. gotta say, very good looking setup :D
 
Thanx for all of your help. I tightend them all down yesterday, no change so tommorrow we are moving the dump I'll let you know if it is fixed ! thanks again. -Dave
