Ok Now the one thing i need to know even though i will probably look in a bently manual that someone gave me yesterday. Where in the world is the Vacuum Modulator? (Sounds like a CB Radio part hehehe) And is there a hose you think already going into the engine compartment? And if not how is the FI tapped into this part and what to i have to remove or to solve this problem? I knew there was a catch with a VW auto. heehe Ummm.... And when i hook this up would i hook it up to the intake manifold i suppose where I have a hose in each one stopping airflow in? I have 2 intakes with both vacuum things stopped up! Thanx jim. I dont know what we would do with out you!!! >From Chris Swafford:www.geocities.com/motorcity/garage/4265/ 537Buckeye 36LSB S.W.
