is there a proper size canister to buy or build, i did a search and did not find what i was looking for for an answer

 

 

I disagree with the use of GE's vacuum log with most ITB's on the market.

I ran this same log on mine for a while, and had a very erratic MAP signal. The car drove poorly, and was very hard to tune.

I made myself a canister roughly the size of your standard IM plenum, and ran my MAP signal/brakes off that.

The car drives 200% smoother now.

Oh, I'm not trying to down-talk the product, I'm just sharing my personal experience with it.

Trust me, nothing was hooked up wrong.

- Derek</TD></TR></TABLE> its cool, i just don't see why you would have a problem when we do them all the time with no problems, its all good didn't meen to sound like i was picking on you ether just found it odd

 

Not sure 'why', but I just did not have good luck with it.

i personally put together 4 itb cars with golden eagle vac box, and never once had a problem. but i recommend you use a mercury stick before you start.

 

could be that the pressure waves from the port are very strong and cause the manifold pressure to oscillate....idk. the larger the manifold the less the pressure waves affect the signal.

My thoughts as well.
