Yeah the line comming from the AFC housing to the wast gate on the turbo.. either pinch that rubber line or do what i did and cut the hose and plug it up with a bolt or something.

then take your fuel plate out and you will see a major power increase

Nope. Then if you really wanna c a difference either slide your fuel plate forward or take it out like i did. BUT.. Some guys will argue that if you take the fuel plate out it might do a run away. I disagree cause mine has never did that. Theres more you can do but you run into the risk of to much boosting your stock turbo and messing it up

just go out there with a pair of vice grips and pinch that hose comming off of your turbo and tell me if you see a difference.

taking out the fuel plate also increases the fuel,which increases the egt's. i'd recomend guages first.
