adding IDP Plenum (need help direction of check valves)
Hey all,
So I've forgotten to take a picture of the check valve (A) in picture and I'm also reconnecting everything for B.
As I've posted before, I'm trying to get everything back to stock(ish) and one of the issues I have is regarding B.
owner before me had line 26 completely disconnected and all of B gone. In fact the deserter valves were removed and a BOV was added to a customer Y-pipe.
Anyway I've got all the tubes and change over valve and little porsche elbows (thank you Pelican parts) but I'm wondering if anyone can explain the direction of both check valves. Part 21 on the diagram and how does the change over valve work with this closed system.
So now I'm left to find the plug for the Change over Valve. Where would the wires originate? I see the N75 has the same type of plug and it's coming from the right of the engine, but I don't see a plug for the change over.

Did you do the install yourself, with engine in car ? How difficult was it getting the stock plenum out ? I assume you lowered the engine a bit and supported the engine with a jack ?
Any feedback is appreciated. Can PM if you prefer.

Hey JB,
I jacked up each side until wheels were about an inch off the ground then I lowered the engine about 4" with motorcycle jack (blue one from Harbour freight). It wassnt to difficult to remove and add back in. That said I removed it one weekend and added it this PST weekend. Less stress that way.
