It is certainly worthwhile to do and ill be doing it now every 5000-10000k's.If anyone has the stupid crimp clamp on their hose like I did, the hose does come off with some effort, just pull upwards slowly. Also I found that removing the coolant tank and undoing the solenoid bolt allows you to have significant room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My car has 90,000 on the clock and it is the first time I have done it, no other mods yet.Usually the power comes on really smoothly but when it comes on now it feels like there is a slight vibration?Any ideas guys?

freeze_dk I am dissatisfied with my current employment situation Donating Members 8,610 Member For: 17y 6m 23d Gender: Male Posted 15/03/09 03:42 AM Share Posted 15/03/09 03:42 AM Just did this,, noticed an improvement on coming onto boost quicker.. I attached the nossil on the WD40 and put it down the pipe then sprayed till it started pissing out (only a couple of seconds) it was all this brown crap coming out.. also put the nossil in the solenoid and did the same thing till all the brown crap came out..
