Can you pull it apart and clean it like the AAC or anything? When I got my motor, the big vac hose that runs from the air regulator to the plenum was broken in half, so I assume some crud got in ther and such. Also, can a new one be had at the dealer or is my only option a used one? My car hates anything beyond 25% throttle when cold so I want to check this. AAC has already been cleaned and I am getting a new PCV tomorrow.

I don't believe you can get one from the dealer, you can get one of a pulsar but it is a bit different, and you have to fabricate a flange and a small pipe on the input air side, plus you have to fabricate a bracket for it to mount it(you can zip tie it).

you can remove your regulator, you should be able to blow one way but not the other.

Good luck,PULSAR GTR
