yep, you heard me. I'm coming back to the 5sfte community. Doing things a little different this time around, here's what I can remember so far that I'm doing differently:
Genuine HKS BOV, the new 2007 design Got my injectors cleaned and flow tested at witchhunter. They were is poor condition before and are great now! Going with a SAFCII instead of a neo. I got it for about $75 cheaper, and it measures knock. I was gonna get a greddy emanage ultimate, but I don't have a laptop to tune it with and it just looked too complicated for me to figure out how to tune it by myself, so maybe I'll upgrade later. Got a custom stailness braided oil feed and drain line kit made specifically for my 5sfte. I just gotta weld a fitting onto my oil pan but I'm having a hard time finding someone willing to do it. I'm fixing my radiator fan which was broken before. the motor fell out of the blade cause it was hooked up wrong I'm using a regular sized radiator instead of the koyo, for a little more engine bay room I'm relocating the battery to the trunk and I'm cutting my IC piping down a lot for a cleaner install, might even paint them like LewFX that's all I can think of right now, pictures to come. hope to be running by the end of the week after 6 months of down time! -------------------- 94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |

I hooked it up following the guide in the stickies and I soldered and heat shrinked all the connections. Presure2, I heard you the first time and I took it into consideration. But I've also given reasons why this way should also work which you have not had a reply as to why it wouldn't. You are merely repeating yourself and the only back-up you have for your statement is that it's the right thing to use because you, or somebody else who rebuilds these turbos for a living, says that it's best. I know that that set-up works but who's to say this set-up won't also work? And I know this couldn't be what you mean, but the way it's coming out, it sounds like you're saying that it's best simply because it's what you have. I'm sure that couldn't be what you're trying to say, but that's how it's sounding because it's impossible to show tone of voice through the internet. -------------------- 94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |
