Great posts on this page. You couldn't have been any more specific with which wires need what for the 3S swap, you've shown where to cut a hole in the firewall for those who don't want to extend the wiring harness. I think this thread should be added to the stickies for the 3S swap as well. Great job! Can't wait for the vids!

pretty much all buttoned up, just a few minor details to attend to.
i just wanted to get it road worthy, make sure there were no leaks ect. turns out i got a bad intercooler waterpump with the clip, but luckily i had a spare in the garage that jeremey was going to let jim borrow back in the day. a couple pics and a quick vid i threw together.

QUOTE (14:19:21) Daniel: That was a JDM hole in the side of the box too. There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out. QUOTE Ferdi says (11:29) No, it looks like a hooker put her acid vag on your hood. Acid vag = bigger problem than a few dings. |

Boost cut on a GEN3 is 18psi. As long as you are under 18psi you will not hit boost cut.
