Can I lose the ICV???
« on: February 10, 2010, 02:29:35 PM »
Weord question, but i'm building a 318is for Lemons/Cump Car, and am trying to simplify, simplify simplify. I know the ICV is important to idle, but since I don't need to worry about idle or emmisions, is it possible to delete/bypass the ICV??? any deterimental side effects??? TIA

I don't have one on my car and it runs fine. The only thing that is an issue is I have to have the idle set quite high to keep it running whilst cold which means it sits a little high once warm. My car is a track car so makes no odds to me.
