It what's called arse covering. If you just rip out all the bits without capping the t-junction you'll loose brake boost, but I reckon most AULROians (the ones that participate in the D2 forum at least) are smart enough not to do that!

If you remove the EGR valve and cap the t-piece then the modulator and filter are doing nothing. The EU3 EGR is a bit different and you need a couple of extra steps. There is a vent into the air filter box that needs to be plugged as well for example, but as an EU2 owner I can't speak with any great authority on any other steps necessary :;

there are several sets of destructions and i have read them all as well as everything else i could find so i wasnt 100 % sure when there seems to be differences i play it safe till i can find out otherwise it looks pretty easy to remove the rest and my brakes actually feel alot better since plugging the t piece up

Hi Guys,

Further the 4 hoses

1. air out from intercooler to EGR valve (large s shaped pipe)
2. motor to intercooler (elbow and 1 of smaller s shaped pipes)

where is other doing this from memory and cant recall wher 4th pipe would go.

Don't expect stainless to not suffer the same fate!

Dissimilar metals will still react!

ok 4th hose has me buggered

EGR to intercooler
intercooler to metal pipe
metal pipe to turbo

I cant find the location of the forth hose for an inspection before it got dark

kit is as follows



where does the forth hose go it is the correct kit for the D2 Series 2
