Alright, i've got some pretty sweet stuff. I've managed to find my the vaccum engagment cylinder thing, that opens the secondary intakes. At the moment it is held open by some zip ties. (Just to see what it would do) Anyway it mos def has an increase in TQ and HP, at least it feels like it. As far as the ECU goes i believe that it does regulate the fuel. When it is open my gas mileage goes to shit. Im still trying to find the wire from the ecu to be able to control it with a switch. But i really dont care cuz it sounds awesome.

more air requires more fuel.

I no that... Arden had asked if the ecu would rgeulate it if they stayed open. So that little part was his answer.

idk if just putting a switch on it would keep it open, i think you would have to find the wire that sends the signal to activate the vaccum thing and create a way to fool the switch into thinking it needed to be activated.
