haha... Thanks...

Not quite q tips... just sprayed with a pressure washer

I've decided somethings...

1) The car is not fast enough... Not near fast enough...

2) It also doesnt stop or corner fast enough...

Its just... not enough...

Hrms... I think I have somethings to start collecting... after I pay Doug back of course

I've had problems with IAC ever since I bought the 92 back in January of 08... So when I started having problems again on the new motor I said fuck it and got rid of it.

Cold start is kinda shitty... starts... doesnt like to idle very well... runs... but wont idle... after about 30 seconds it starts to idle... but low fumbly idle.

I'm working on my own remedy for this without IAC...

Looks very good Spencer. Real men have clean engine bays!

Think about getting the Subaru engine block heater. It only costs $27. Works well.

I am thinking of going the same route as you with your engine build, but why won't the IAC work? Over here gets as cold as -40C.

Its not that it wont... I blocked it off because I didnt want it.

You can put it on where I have the block off plate and it will work fine. I just didnt want it anymore.

All I'd have to do it put a valve there... connect it to the copper elbow on the intake thats capped off and put the motor back on top of the valve and it would work.

thanks Zach!

And its not that fast... but the compression definitely gives it a BIG increase in power.

And spins the td04 to 10lbs by 1800rpm in 5th :shock:
