Bypassing n249 Aum
« on: 27 July 2014, 23:55 »
Hello,

I'm looking into bypassing my N249 valve, I've read the thread and I'm just wondering if it's really worth doing? Does it really make a lot of difference? Cheers

I did it to mine and didnt notice any difference. Anly advantage is there is alot less vacuum pipes to leak
