Aih< Ccv< Epbv
Well waiting on my turbo today, I got bored, and decided to add a couple more cheap mods. So went ahead and did the Fuel Shim, AIH delete, routed the CCV back next to gas tank with filter, and gutted the EBPV. I will swap over the housing when the new turbo gets here. Man I can't wait!! Thanks for all the help and info from this site and these members!! You guys are awesome!!
Now I just need that big brown truck to show up!!

Couple of beers, a couple of hours and that was all folks. Kinda easy with the turbo out!! LOL

when you gutted the ebpv, what did you seal the lower hole with? just wandering because I used a brass freeze plug like the top hole, but it melted and blew out, I think the top plug is steel, now I will tap it and put a pipe plug in.

Formula, I'd use something that can withstand ALOT of heat.
Keifer... sounds good man - I bet there's a lot of room once you have the turbo and pipes out! LOL I'll be doing the fuel drain mod and maybe another cheap mod this weekend - depends on the weather since I'm not down in SUNNY FREAKIN FLORIDA LOL!!!! |

I got to enjoy the weather now Maintain. Moving to MAINE in 3 weeks!
So better get stuff done now. I used a brass freeze plug. Hope it don't melt! LOL If so, oh well, I have become a pro at taking off the turbo. Not too bad actually! Also did the fuel shim too, and got the new turbo in yesterday. Pulling max of 29 PSI of boost. A little surge though, so now I need to get another WW.

Be prepared, that brass plug will melt and blow out, mine lasted until I pulled my boat, it's about 14,000 pound's, I was able to fix it by removing the down pipe and un bolting the ebpv housing off the turbo, the c-clip was still their but no sine of the brass freez plug, I tapped it with a 1/2" pipe tap and put in a steel plug, it was not any fun, considering I should have done it that way to begin with, the top plug appears to be stainless steel, so I left it alone, good luck with it!

Great. Figures. Should have got a steel one instead. Hopefully it lasts a while. Don't feel like tearing it apart again anytime soon. But shouldn't be too bad taking off the exhaust and unbolting the housing off the turbo. Thanks for the heads up.
