Well ive already removed them from the manifold and the box is fuxord so what im asking basically can i just loop the vacuum lines and be ok? Im running two different ecu's a p30 + p28 since they both dont read IAB's

WHen removing the IABs from the manifold you will lose a few ponies under vtec. but running on a ps28 or p30 ecu you wont notice it. when you get in vtec the high rpm's 6000-8,500 pull alot harder its just like if you got a skunk 2 manifold
