Question Ecotek on a Sport

been thinkin of gettin one of thoe new-fangled ecotek things, problem is they say mount it on the servo line, which is no good according to people in here. the consensus seems to be that it is best fitted on the dump valve line or something. problem is i have a sport which clearly has no dump valves to speak of. Any ideas if/where i could fit it???????

I've been using the Ecotek on different of cars for a couple of years and would thoroughly recommend it - it lowers fuel consumption and helps with off-boost lethargy.

It evens lowers emissions come MOT time (...decat anyone?)

Yes - I've got one on a classic scooby, works great - in fact, Subaru factory fit a similar device to the New Age cars (one on each servo pipe).

I've got mine fitted to the dump valve pipe on the classic, to give the results mentioned above.

Some people have mentioned worries about det with this device, but it is only effective when there is a negative manifold pressure, so will not lean out the mixture under boost (phew...)
