ac-schnitzer sports export edition.

Hi,

Just changed my back box to the ac-schnitzer sports export edition.

Not sure if it's me but, the power seems less since the swap over. Previously I used to get loads of wheel spin but now nothing. Any ideas?

Also what do I do with the valve pipes now it's not needed on the new exhaust?

So it sounds like you got a new exhaust or disconnted the hose going to the exhaust valves. If that's the case then you will experience loss of power for sure.

On each side you have a hose that connects to the valve Solenoids. You'll want to get a valve cap and cap them / secure them so there are no leaks.

As 13M5f10 said....Thats definitely the issue and should be a simple fix

On a side note, please let me know what you think of the exhaust as I was considering this for a while!
