enginph Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 whats the procedure for bypassing this, perhaps the next time the millenia emerges I will do some tests You just remove the vacuum line off the back of the actuator and close off the end of the hose. I used one of these Size either 5/32 or 3/16, whatever is available, and I got the brass cap to screw on the end. If you don't want to go to as much trouble than you can cap it off with anything that will fit in and make good seal. I have had it done for a few months now with no issues, when winter comes and it sees the extreme cold, I will know for sure if there are any problems, but there are none that I can see happening. With the freezing intercoolers, I expect that driving will be very enjoyable. I think that the reason the bypass is set up in that way is if the solenoid fails, the intercoolers are always used. If it was the other way around, the solenoid fails and the intercoolers are not being used, then you rev above 4k rpm which gets the air is very hot and will cause detonation if it enters directly into the engine before being cooled down. I also want to see if there is a way to have the bypass opened at idle only, and at any throttle position greater than 0 it was closed. I have a vacuum gauge, and I might see if there is a line to tap into to give this result. It could be done electrically but then it makes it a more difficult mod to perform. Just disconnect the harness dude.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiTown Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 one of the body clips that are round and pop in are good to seal the end of the tube. steal one from the black cover in the engine bay over the headlights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

///BHRpowered Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 Mine is just a universal kit I got from horsepowerfreaks.com you need the controller, kit, and a damn extra nozzle and plastic tubing, tanks can be found in alot of places, I always wanted to mount mine in the trunk but neer get around it to. Pretty easy install, I think it was like 250 for everything and just run bottled water, the instructions say to never use tap water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

///BHRpowered Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/sale/perfo...oler_Spray_Kits Its changed abit, you would need the controller, a 2nd nozzle, and the kit with the tank and everything, I'v never done anything with the CO2, but seems like a waste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveSter Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Where in the hell were you able to fit that water tank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Like, I said, I would LIKE to have put it in the trunk, instead it sits *mostly* under the passenger seat, but like my amp sticks out just a bit since there isn't alot of room. Since no one has ever, nor will never sit in my backseats it works for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enginph Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 very well, the next time the millenia is due for a drive I will test this mod Just unplug the connection to the solenoid, very easy to try.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt64341 Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 If you unplug the solenoid it will store a code, no CEL, but still I would rather just cap the line off. That way the ECU thinks everything is working properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 I would plug it, but the millenia isn't on the rotation for probably another 5-6 weeks, probably atleast halloween...depending on many things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since no one has ever, nor will never sit in my backseats it works for now you will explain how you routed that shit to under the passenger seat, and someone will tell me where i would route the hose so it sits in teh damn trunk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankzao Posted September 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 I am not paying $250 for no dang kit....I can rig something up from Home Depot and a junk yard for $20.....no controller you say? how about a dang on/off switch........just leave the bugger on when you want to......

Excellent idea, screw auto control. I drove with a broken solenoid for a year or so. I had that mod but i didnt know It throws P1526 IIRC, no CEL..

///BHRpowered Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 umm, what kind of kit could you rig up?? you need a controller to power a pump, you need a tank with fluid, you need nozzles. lat - exact sme way you would wire up an amp, find a place, run tubing/wiring, drill small hole in firewall If you had been at MWM08 like you promised you would have known more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
