quick questions vaccum
Turbo Mini Forums

i am about to get my mini set up on the rolling road but i have a few questions

i have a supercharger with a 40 dcoe weber set up but on the carb i cannot find the vaccum take off

so could someone please advise?

What do you want the take off for? Anyrthing after the butterfly will be suitable and on your setup you have plenty of places to choose from.

its for the vaccum for the dizzy

oh and as you said anywhere after the butterfly do you mean before the supercharger also where can i get those manifold take offs that the vaccum pipe goes to ?

I don't think it needs to be before the charger as with the butterfly closed the charger will only be trying to compress a vacuum so will be doing nothing. However, if you dizzy is clever and changes the ignition with boost then it will have to MAP and therefore connected to the manifold and after the charger.

i have the standard 1275 mg metro electronic dizzy with the vaccum on the side of it,

and when the hiff44 used to be on the engine it had a take off on the manifold spacer plate going to the dizzy and as there isnt a place to push a pipe onto the weber what shall i do?

i believe as you said after the charger will be fine but i am unsure if it is a smart one as its a standard dizzy
