Adding free boost is this true?

[AlexP]

A buddy of mine told me that I can remove the vaccum hose off the boost controller solernoid the bottom one and by removing it it will add 2lbs of boost is this true? If so will this work with the BCs mod on this website by removing the plastic insert off the other side tube where you thread a screw into it to remove the plastic insert? If so these to cvould possibly add 2-4 lbs of boost together.
Please let me know if any of you have tried this...thanks

actually if Im thinking what your saying is right, then youd be running open wastegate which means alot more then an extra 2 lbs

just stick with the basic BCS mod, with a boost gauge. removing the vac line is a bad idea.

Yeah don't remove the vacuum line, you might regret it.

yea i forgot about unhookin the wastegate while i was cleaning the engine, oh yea, nothing like 20 psi when ur of expecting it switched it back b4 it could do any harm

yeah i hit almost 30 for a moment with my T25 when one of the lines came off my boost controller

Yeah, I had that happen to me too. If that happens, the turbo's wastegate is unregulated and you could destroy your engine very easily. It'll just keep building boost until something breaks.
