Description
Spulen Upgraded 2.5L Brake Vacuum Pump Delete Plate
Plate ONLY, not the full Kit
The braking system on your vehicle requires constant vacuum to assist in applying the brakes. Traditionally this vacuum is achieved by plumbing the brake booster to the engine’s intake manifold. This provides the needed vacuum to assist in applying the brakes.
However, vehicles equipped with the 2.5L engine do not receive vacuum from the intake manifold. Instead the 2.5L engine is equipped with an external vacuum pump to provide the necessary vacuum. The vacuum pump design has numerous disadvantages including decreased power output from increased parasitic engine drag, the pumps oil seals are prone to failure and cause significant oil leaks, and a replacement pump cost upwards of $350 for parts, and around $1100 if replaced at the dealership.
The Patened Spulen Ultimate Brake Vacuum Pump Delete Kit addresses all of these disadvantages. The Spulen kit eliminates the factory pump using a block off plate with a high temperature resistant o-ring. The brake booster is then plumbed to the intake manifold using custom silicone hoses. As an added benefit the included silicone hose replaces the factory plastic PCV hose which is prone to cracking.
What is the Ultimate Plate?
