'86 Rocco/ 8v - vacuum deleting advice

[Slowlow]

Hey all! I've got this '86 scirocco 8v, and it could use some vacuum lines. While I'm in there I'd like to delete any unnecessary plugs or hoses!


I'm not concerned with smog/ emissions etc.. Just want the least amount of lines I can get away with.

Thanks ahead of time!

That engine really does not have an excessive amount of lines attached. Sure there are two or three which can be deleted but their function out weights their removal I think. It is not really a matter of emission control, that engine is kind of "pre-emission", it is a matter of a better running engine, driveability. For the sake of removing a foot or two (maybe) and a small device or two you end up with an engine which just does not work as well. If that's your wish then just slap on a carburetor and delete almost everything under the hood except for the motor.

I'm too used to aircooled cars with basically no vacuum.. To me this thing has a ****load of lines.

Anyone else?

Convert it to MS, then you only have 2 vacuum lines. One for the brake booster and one to the MS unit. This does requite you to switch to the digi dizzy and run fuel and spark via the MS. And you delete all of the injector lines.

Like so:
