So there are votes for both sides. If it is possible to help with Off Idle Bog (which is one of the reasons I am doing this) should I try and constrict it? It seems I could easily enough pull the FLAPS tee and throw some JB weld on the end and drill it out. And if so in reading through this there are 2 constrictors - "T" from the vacuum line off of the Throttle Body to the valve on the charcoal canister = .06mm (described as 1.5 the thickness of a post it note...wow!) - "Y" from the line off the passenger side of the Plenum on the smaller 3.5 branch that goes to the Charcoal canister = 1.4mm or roughly a 1/16 drill bit. I haven't contacted my local VW dealer but they are usually pretty arrogant when it comes to anything built prior to 2K and all my online research leads to NLA. Thoughts on should I or ways to do this? David you mentioned a greased wire with JB weld...that sounds doable. Ryan Perry Asheville, NC
