Default restrictor pill

when i got my 93 wrx it had a forge manual boost controller fitted.i have since taken it off and i am putting car back to almost standard.i had no original pipe work for the bcs so used the silicon tube that the forge boost controller used.the problem is that there is no restrictor pill in the bottom pipe from the bcs.what problems will this cause and can i get restrictor pills seperately or do i have to find the original pipes????

going to get some 1.2mm mig welding tips and drill out to 2mm today and see how much better it is.the joys of taking loads of go faster bits off a car and going back to standard.

Well what a difference.loads smoother.now just have to work out why it's running lean at tickover and throwing up cel code 22.light goes off when you go above 1500rpm.

You can buy them from your local subaru dealer for a couple of quid. Although if you've managed to drill the welding tip that should suffice, I've broken no end of drill bits! Lol
