yea the reason why its cheaper is probably because its a Dorman product and not actual GM. Dorman is still an OEM replacement manufacturer though

you guys think a bad vapor canister can cause fluctuating vacuum when the car gets to operating temp? my vacuum lines run like this: T from intake manifold, 1 goes to wastegate, 1 goes into another T : then 1 goes to BOV then the other to vapor canister

maybe this will help:



hopefully getting new SRI soon and deleting one of those couplers in the future, temporary fix cuz MAP bung welded 180* off

we had to fix it. we had no choice.. his brother is AMAZING at welding.. you cant even tell..though it took 3 hours. it should be good it wasnt leaking or anything. but thats advice to a 2.2 going turbo get a spare pan and tap it before hand
