if i use a vortech 12:1 fmu and an inline pump with a fpr do i need a check valve?

 

Yes, your going to need either check valves or a missing link. If your map sensor sees boost, your ECU will go on crazy pills and throw a code. The check valves and missing link are used to bleed off postive pressure (boost) so your map sensor doesn't sense it.

 

like i said... i got the missing link for sale. youll definitely need it man. dont wanna have alot of CELs showin up on you while youre boostin.

 

dude i got a misssiing link,and i live in doylesttown....i'll sell it cheap. who r u? i usually know evryone here that boosts wit turbo.....lemme know,besides if u need custom work done let us kow, cos u prolly heard of my crew Late Shift Engineering???

 

oh yeah u need a t3t4oe....? .63ar/stage 3 wheel, etc. new in box from garret, i have the fittings from earls for oil return/feed too....lemme know cos i would like to see it on a car i live near/around....if not, cool.

 

fish stores have check valves for $2ea buy 2 or 3 and your set or you can buy a missing link(missing link=billet check valve). Up to you

 

hey dlplayboy, how much for the missing link?

 

20 bucks and ya got my check valves
im in NY
516 705 8008
they are good for up to about 7-8 psi then ya gotta add one of two more.
if you go w/ the link you just need to make sure you keep it clean or it wont read correct.

 

I have a two check valve setup with tees I can sell you cheap. Good to 7 psi. I'll even throw in instructions (simple as pie).

How about $5 plus a few stamps?

E-mail me and I can ship today from pittsburgh.

late shift - how much for the missing link? i could save on shipping!

 

it took 5 checks for me to drop the code so....
3 times 5 is 15dollars pluse T's and hose.... hmmm 20 still sound messed up
ohh and my link fault on me once...
keep it clean if ya go for the link

 

DAMN!!! 5 check valves!! I have never seen 5 check valves in use. I have seen 3 and my CRX runs great with 2, but 5 is ludicrous. What valves did you use? How big of a tee?

I used all 3/16" tees and hose and tetra brand clear plastic check valves.

If you used 1/8" tees that could be the problem.

Never heard of that before, I used 2 check valves from a fish store, 10psi no CEL.
The check valves that come with the drag kit suck.

 

use 1 check valve for every 5 pounds of boost
