Default rs500 intercooler /amal avlve

Help please!! I am fitting a radtec rs500 intercooler to my escos. the new intercooler does not have a mount on it for the amal valve and on stripping the old intercooler out the electrical connection was not connected to the amal valve. Do I need to re install the amal valve or can I remove it ?

Try reconnecting it and the car should boost faster/better.... I think.... If you remove the valve it should build up boost slower.

Air to Air injectors control the boost precisely, nothing to do with water INJ
