putting an rb25 into my 93 s13. got the engine yesterday and after out looking at it theres a few questions I have. First I'm running flex-a-lite slim fans so do I need the one on the engine? I've been looking at pictures and it looks like alot of ppl have them off but just wanna double check

and was looking at my ps res and noticed beside it theres 2 lines running from something with an electrical feed that run into the wastegate and the other goes into a T and one end leads to the recirc fitting from the stock bov and the other end was cut. I'm wondering if they are emissions lines, and if they are then I can get rid of them right b/c i'm getting rid of all my emissions crap. Do i have to plug them?

thanks in advance

You wouldnt want to run both the clutch fan and the E fans. If you have the E fans go with them and drop the stocker.

The thing bolted to the pwr steering reservoir is the Boost control solenoid, it can be moved or bypasses and not used at all. From what I understand if you plumb it in correctly it will hold the boost a 5 psi unitl a certain rpm then jump to 7 psi, I'm not running mine. it will not cause a check engine light because the ecu just grounds it at the designated rpm
