hey thats right we ain't rich! Here are some pics of the finished system:
AVC-R and the PLX Devices SM-AFR gauge:
FMIC made from 40% of a F-350 intercooler:
HKS Super AFR:
the VF39:
Well I have had it all together for about a day and set the boost to 1 bar and pulled 10% fuel across the range and its still rich, past 10.5 and I'm running 440's.
The vf39 waste gate makes a sweet flutter, I love the way it sounds. Rally tastic!
The press bend piping is a good custom fit, the welds look like crap but it works, and it's cheap. I forgot to weigh it before I put it all on but I figure something will go wrong and have to pull it all apart sometime and I'll do it then. It's put together with radiator hose couplers and 2 ebay silicone reducers at the compressor outlet and TB.
