Default Dump valve delete quick question,what bung ?

Tried doing a search for this and only found endless reasons why not to or to do it.....

But what i really want to know is :

What do you use to blank off the dump valve pipes and the pipe into the inlet manifold ?
The car is a 98' terzo.... It already has a cacky baileys VTA dump valve on it, which means the bottom pipe is already blocked, but how do you block the one out of the top intercooler and inlet manifold ?
Have you ordered another fitting kit and used that bung ?
What have you guys used ?
And any pics of the done job would be really helpful !


Many thanks...... Hoping to find a dry 10mins to do this sometime this weekend !

Blocking the inlet off, just bend over the pipe and use some electrical tape to seal it, or screw a screw into it, (which of course needs to be a tight fit,). As dump valve hole in intercooler, you could just buy a bung, they sell them in most motor factors.

Cheers for that !
I've bunged up the one and folded over the inlet one, but im still keeping the VTA in the car just incase i hear something dodgy going on !

The car does sound alot better and less "jerky" then what it was.

Thanks again..
