some photographs from the last couple days...
Sanded the spark plug cover smooth... it'll get painted gloss black sooner or later
Heater hose toward left of photo is going to be VERY close to the 4" downpipe... ordered DEI Heat Sheath insulation for it to help with that.
Marked manifold for EGT bung, and dropped it off to be welded and ceramic coated...
Power Steering cooler painted flat black, and finally found a way to mount it...
Sooooo excited I randomly stumbled upon the exact custom adapter I need... Greddy Type-R 4 bolt to Tial -band flange so I can install my Tial 44mm EWG to my Greddy manifold. Sweeeeet.
Oyyy... there are seven (7) 1/8 NPT ports on the back of the mani. Using them for: MAP ECU, BOV, FPR, Boost Controller, Boost Gauge, and the remaining 2 are plugged. They are all 1/8 NPT x 1/8 barbed except for the BOV which is 1/8 NPT x 3/16 barbed...
Had to bend the bawls out of this line for it to fit... still doesnt seem right but if it works it works. Had to stretch it between the slave cylinder and the black bracket with silver clip toward the top left of the photo. Its on now so its all good...
(Here is a before pic showing how the line came, before I worked it to fit the bracket)
Main ECU and MAP ECU...
Tired Fred with battery...
0 gauge from alternator to back... so fresh and so clean!
0 gauge out the back passenger corner of the engine bay... so fresh and so clean!
