Which line did you tap for the boost gauge?

 

this line:

 

I'd zip-tie all those vacuum lines (if thats ur pic)

 

yes, i zip tied it and no, thats not my how to. :P

 

So you are concerned you are not hitting full boost?

Come pick me up for a ride and I'll tell ya

 

^well his boost gauge (AEM) is only showing lower boost (I think he said like 10psi earlier in the thread), which is why he is thinking he has a leak. The AEM should be good to 29.5 in stock form, Josel.

BTW - we should be good with the TBE and O2. I'm not much of a breakfast eater, though.

One more thing to mention - you don't have ACD on your Evo, right? I know you got the catback (?) from Derek, who has a IX, but what about the DP? Just something to think about (I'm not sure how well IX components routed for ACD work with VIII, but I would guess we'll be okay).

Oh yeah - nice engine bay! Very clean! Mine is usually filthy!

 

Mines all dirty too. I like 'em a little bit dirty...... not too dirty though. Hehehehehe. ;P

 

ryan: just checked the forum right now. its late so ill give you a call tomorrow. ill come pick you up if youre free...

yahu: i got the evo 8 with acd. i double, even triple checked with the vendor. he told me that the dp should clear the install without fitment issues.

as for the pic i attached. thats not my engine bay. :P i got it from a DIY how to. here is his link:

^tricky! Ah, you have ACD then. I assume the vendor is correct.

 

When are you guys doing the exhaust Dan?

 

^saturday morning tol.

 

Oh what. I was thinking about helping you guys but i have to work Saturday morning. My car still at the shop right now. Hopefully done by tomorrow or tuesday. Just lemme know if you guys need a hand or anything.

 

^what goodies do you have going in, Francis?

 

^^^ GSC S2 cams, 1000cc injectors, Buschur ported exhaust manifold, Titek turbo outlet, Rod bolts, Replacing the timing belt, my front axles are going bad so im replacing that too with the AMS one plus AMS radiator hose, supertech springs and retainers. That's all i got Dan!

 

im going to have to back out of my spot on saturday. My car isnt going to be ready. My injectors are to small and my blow off valve isnt going to be in in time. Sorry ill meet up with you guys next time you come up.
