Did any of you do this mod to make it work? Who is using VTA on the stock MAF with no problems? thanks

Next, you need to buy about 4 inches of vacuum hose since HKS doesnt include the smaller hose (stock is too big) and they just include the big to small adapter.

 

im running a HKS VTA bov with no stalling at all, i do have a SES light on but it may or maynot be from the BOV.

 

how come im having a problem with ever since i put it on, it was always recirced
and i still have the idle drop and sometimes stall at low rpms or engage clutch coming to stop, i even tried the eids, no dice

 

i have the same problem with it, so does my boyfriend!!! they are also both recirced and i still get the idle drop, bounce, then stabelize or stall!!
so no worries, your not the only one!

 

i don't have the ssqv, but my buddy matt has it, he ran it VTA with NO PROBLEM. same goes for Val(dragonfly), she runs hers VTA with no stalling. Once i install mine i'll let u know. All evo engines are, to some degree, different.
As far as know, you shouldn't have a problem.
