ccv reroute? routing the crankcase hose from the valve cover out to atmosphere instead of running it back through the turbo for reburn

harpoon mod? cutting the small vent hose inside the fuel tank to allow for a faster more complete fill of the fuel tank

Just a few that I found online..

Thanks,

Answers in red above. Also search the tech folder for instructions on how to accomplish most of these relatively easily.
