ebpv butterfly removed
was a fun project, total of about 2 hours, took my time, all you need is a 8point 8 mm wrench and or ratchet, slide the DP down, a dremel with a snake attatchment and a few cut off disks. cut the ebpv actuator rod in half with the dremel, chewed right threw it. then ground down the double sided rivets and punched threw, smaked out the valve with a hammer, then the rod inside the housing slides right out. then used a 3/4" freeze plug, 5/8 does not fit, wayyyy to small! slammed it all back together and now i get a semi coo with a highboost let off. i wish i had a HQ camera with sound to video tape it because i honestly cant even spell the sound it makes haha, its deffinetly different, havent really heard it before but i like it. over all i say its a great mod if you do not use the EBPV and it takes just a few short hours

I want to leave the EBPV in, but I don't.
I got it unplugged, but i swear it still closes at startup sometimes.
Truck runs really wierd for a few mins then its fine.
Id like it in on manual only mode so i can start it up on cold days and hit the switch.
But, i'll more then likely just remove it.

Haha ya my professors don't like it so much when my truck pulls into the quad looking for a parking space. The truck echos so loud in there that I actually had a teacher come all the way outside from the 4th floor to "tell" me to shut off my truck with a not so nice aditude, that it was disrupting him in his office. Well he didn't see me telling him to go (edit) himself so he was quite taken aback lol. I hate it when these popus asses think that they are so much better than the students that are paying the dam salaries, they just need to be put in there place from time to time but 98% of the students are to affraid to do it. Oh ya and steve don't you mean a 12 point 8mm?

i hear ya but it don't work that way here at University of Tennessee-Martin. no one county in the northwest part of the state has emissions inspections on trucks. yet if campus police or any professor/administration thinks your trucks too loud its a parkin ticket the first time after that they pull your parkin sticker. got 12 tickets my freshman year there. haven't parked on campus since
