Very nice build.
Do you know the part number you used for the Colder thermostat?
And where did you pull the oil feed from?
Thanks bud,

Naika:
I dont remember the part # for the thermo, 75 deg celsius from bma.

There is a oil feed on the back of the block just like the front near the filter. I removed the bolt and took it to a hose & fittings guy, I ask him to match up threads from this and to my hose from the turbo. You can see it in the video some where in the begining.

Danny:
If you throw in the driveshaft Ill pick it all up. Mine is out of balance.

^Very nice... Where'd you run your coolant lines? Oil feed? What do you think of the 4.10 diff now with boost?

I hope to have mine up and running within a month as well. Thanks Danny.

I ran the coolant from the throttle body heater hoses. I would like to run a 3.73 diff now.

Sure I'll cut you a deal on the Driveshaft, give me a call.

Thanks for the info on the oil feed, I'll check that out. Do you have any info on the thread and size of the adapter needed? by any chance...
I need to find a water cooled turbo!!!

Nice build... very nice actually. LOL my m42 didn't idle that solidly NA let alone FI.

I got mine installed but it is far from running correctly. Not even drivable yet. It runs, but not well.

Where is your cam cover vent hose going? I have mine routed to the tb with a 1 way check valve (like on the brake booster). Was told this works...

EDIT: NM did some reading and that is not the correct way to run FI. I went and plugged the bottom TB port and just ran the hose from the cam covers down to the bottom of the car with a breather.

need to know more about your RRFPR is it 8:1 or 12:1
what fuel are you using .. 91 octane?

nuvolarossa · « **Reply #39 on:** August 18, 2009, 02:28:21 AM »

from the shape I suppose it's adjustable. It should be a old Cartech/Begi ones, but surely adjustable.

Danny707 · « **Reply #40 on:** August 18, 2009, 03:01:32 AM »

Its a Jackson Racing adjustable one.

Awgy... where do you have your ICV plumbed into?

I'm extremely jealous of your cold start and solid idle. Takes me 10 starts to get my car running, then after she is warm... she idles around 1050. And not solidly either... lol. I miss my motronic.

ICV is plumbed just like factory. I hear not to have it this way along with the afm in the charge pipe, but I have no problems what so ever. Im not saying there wont be in the future. Just until then this is the way its gonna be. The vavle cover hose is just ran to atmosphere.

Here is a vid going down the hwy and back. The video is from a cheap camera on a bracket attached to the head rest. I got the idea from a post somewhere on here I think.

Hey Awgy,

I have a vacuum question.
I plan on buying a vacuum port, to feed the vaccum from the mani and then feed back out to the different locations.
Do you know how many vacuum connections you have? the vacuum ports are avail with 3-4-5-6 ports.
A list of vacuum connections would be awesome
Thanks bud
