Default Efi Conversion Crossover Pipe

I am wanting to keep my MFi Crossover Pipe as its all nice and polished but am converting to EFi. I've noticed the EFi pipe has an additional pipe for the ISCV (idle speed control valve) but on the MFi doesn't have this pipe. Is there any way round this?

I was thinking about running a hose from the outlet for the dump valve to it which should work but looks a bit dodgy.

Cheers
Dave

Just blank it off mate. Bit of hose and a blanking bung. Or get it welded up.





BTW SAY NO TO DUMP VALVES

I am needing the extra pipe with going EFi but the MFi one doesn'e have this pipe.







The part with the arrow on is the part I need as I'm going efi. The one underneath is the one I have now and want to keep. Just had a throught though I could use the hole on the other side as the charge sensor goes on the inlet manifold on the EFi.

Cool cheers mate. I thought the ISCV might need the pressure from the charge pipe to work. Makes my life a little easier then. Turning out to be easier than I thought this lark. Why didn't i go for this earlier.

No the only reason it goes into the pipe is so it draws in clean air from the filter, fitting a breather filter is the same effect.

Indeed EFI is easy, wish i could pull my finger out and START mine
