when I did my swap I also was not able to all of the bolts to fit. I rocked it without that bolt for a while but the next time i had the peddles out I just notched that one hole over a bit and it fit just fine.

Thanks for the clarification Robert, iv never read that anywhere on here before. I am not currently trying to do this but if I was I would be stoked. When I did my old setup, since i had a newer style kit and i knew i had to do some welding/fab anyways I turned my FMIC upside down and ran the tubes ...

I have noticed not being able to see there names before with other competitors over the years and never thought to ask. thanks for clearing that up. That's a huge difference in price!

Good job this weekend Matt! Cant wait to check out some videos. And those halo headlights are siiick. Do you know why it doesn't list your name in the Rally America website for results?

interesting POV through the video. Will be watching the RA live feed. Good luck.

sounds about right, the slow engagement is from low line pressure, assuming your fluid level is ok

Thanks for the definite answer bratman. I guess that's the end of it then.

thanks for the quick responses guys! I wasn't sure anyone would chime in

Well when you say it like that then I see why no one has done it. I just get excited when I see something new and different and I tend not to pay attention to logic.

I have seen really high (12.5:1) compression 2.5s make 200WHP with "minor'' fuel mods (wrx injectors and a walbro) and a tune. Honestly, if I made 150ish HP without the mods and a tune I would be extremely happy. As I think a lot of people on this forum would be. But that's why I cant believe I...

So I have been on this site for many years and stumbled across this thread yesterday and couldn't believe I had never heard of doing this before. http://bbs.legacycentral.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=53168 The thread gets kinda convoluted about engine management at the end but the first half is full ...

only second gear? and only under those circumstances? Its probably transmission line pressure bleeding off somewhere. Or maybe its cavitating air. how is your fluid level. have you serviced semi recently?

I didn't notice until you got back and started message bombing the forum. It was nice to see the familiar red back on the board.

+1 on hoping you have a miles card or something. with that many miles you probably fly back to London for free next time.

if you have access to non ethanol premium then that's what I would/have used in the past. depending on where you are, all of the blend on the west coast is E15 at least. Less in the winter. Personally i find the variability in the concentration of ethanol in gas annoying and inconsistent even if you...

Yeah better more reliable injectors, a more common MAF and a more serviceable/adjustable IAC are pluses in my book. I am considering putting the newer style stock air intake on to see if it really is as much of an improvement as everyone claims to be. But other then that. Everything on the car is re...

I moved it back to where it belongs and added a supplementary ground to negative terminal of the battery just to make sure. Also added some other "grounding mod'' locations as well.

I literally just had my harness all torn apart and doing the same thing a few weeks ago on my car. That would have been convenient if I still had mine to look at. Sorry man.

So what you are saying is you snipped what you thought was 1 wire and it ended up cutting 2?

it was from a 90. Sorry I should have posted back on here to elaborate. I should have caught this when I did head gaskets but someone had attached the ground to the mounting bolt for one of the fuel lines that goes under the intake manifold to the passenger side. It was attached but out of sight and...

right on! This opens up a lot more options for me. Thanks again for like the 20th time Josh!

wow... just wow... I cant believe they sent them out like that.

several years ago I passed in California and I was catless and straight piped. Although I did get dinged for decibels. You probably just need a new o2 sensor.

awesome find!

no damage will result from not having cats, and obd 1 cars don't monitor that down stream air so the car wont even know its got. you will loose some back pressure but in your case that sounds like it would be a good thing. haha

safe is a relative term. It is fine to drive a catless car but what you are suggesting is potentially hazardous to your health. if you do cut the exhaust off before the cat, your exhaust gases will be dumping right under your passnegers seat. So 1, its going to be extremely loud, 2, probably burn th...

Nissans do that too, the ECU grounds them when it wants to inject fuel
