evaporater canister relocation

Did a search on "evaporater canister" and didn't get too far. I'm wondering, is there anything important as to the length of the piping for the canister. I'm considering moving it, perhaps even cutting through the pan it sits on and moving it underneath. Would this comprimise it's functionality? Thanks, Jon

Re: evaporater canister relocation

i dont think it will matter at all for your hose lengths, went to see a buddy of mine the other day and was telling him i'm trying to figure out how to relocate everything for my turbo , and on his brothers 92 the previous owner moved it to under that trim piece around the hood latch behind the bumper, now they used like 25 pounds of silicone to hold it in place but i'm looking at just making a bracket, you should be alright......try charcoal canister

Thanks Iroc. Yep, Charcoal Canister yielded much more results. And I think I'm with you on making a bracket rather than siliconing it in place lol!
