250 Fitted Recirculation Blank Plate & issues.

  1. So last night I managed after a lot of messing around to get the KTR Blank fitted. After fixing a vacuum leak, and reattatching the air inlet (don't ask) properly, the car is now boosting 0.3bar more than it was, feels better, however it's not making the chatter I'd imagine.
    Currently on the standard air box, anyone shed any light onto any of the above? I can't see how that plate could cause any increase in boost pressure, I also don't understand why it's not chattering.

    P.s. Is the sound generator necessary? If not how do you go about blanking off the pipe it attaches to & the firewall hole?

    Thanks in advance!
     
  2. Maybe your recirc valve was leaking previously so you gained the 0.3bar it has lost

  3. Never even thought of that, however I haven't heard of it happening to these before so that's probably why.

  5. Decent! Every cloud has a silver lining I guess.
