I'm "hoping" for close to 400 whp and about the same torque on 28-29 psi but we'll have to find out when she goes on the dyno.

I'd be happy if I was able to squeeze out 380-390 with a safe tune.

Phase II now complete:
 
What better thing is there to do than to work on your car on a rainy day?

Spent some more time on the car and ran just about all the wiring

I drilled a small hole through the cardboard and ran the wiring straight through for a clean look in the trunk:

Grounded the pump on the V-brace:

I ABSOLUTELY love this wiring harness. I thought I was going to have to strip the wires and put them onto the relay manually but nope...you just plug the relay and the float valve wire into the harness. Thats it. A power wire and a group of wires wrapped in black plastic run along the door sills towards the front of the car to the battery and the "brain" :

I hid most of the nylon delivery hose and power wires so it doesn't look much different in the engine bay. Stealth:) :

http://eden.rutgers.edu/~binhle/Aqua...20(Medium).JPG

The high speed valve and flow sensor mounted next to eachother. I drilled tiny holes and screwed the HSV into the firewall with the provided mounting tabs:

The final product in the trunk using nicks design:

http://eden.rutgers.edu/~binhle/Aqua...ium)%20(2).JPG

I just have to run the wire for the high speed valve to the "brain", order my mac valve for the boost cut failsafe, run a few wires to my AEM EMS for map switching and tap my UICP for the jets and I'm pretty much done!!{thumbup}

Looks like I better set up an appointment for a dyno tune soon;)

So when are we putting one in your car Josh? {thumbup}

Binh, thats a 1st class installation! {thumbup} {thumbup} {thumbup}

Just about the time I get a diamond star tattoo on my butt :lol:

I love the attention to detail binh. I'm sensing the ocd runs strong in you... {thumbup}

Binh,

I have one suggest to add to this already a very nice installartion. If you can use the grounding bolts supplied withthe kit, it will stop the present grounding tag working loose.

Nice install binh, its good to see that the timing of things worked out pretty good. The images are also helpful for others when they look for ideas or clarification in order to install a part.

Instead of payment for the fittings how about a swap, hold onto the tap and drill bit, when you see another user looking or otherwise inquiring about these offer to send the bit and tap to them. What this does is make it a little easier for everyone since for the most part you might not use these again.

Richard offers great advice on the ground and I hope others see this. Ground wires and good solid grounding points/locations are sometimes over looked because it does not seem that critical. But grounds are the other part of the circuit and need the same attention that a wire that carries a signal or voltage.

After I got everything bolted up I realized that I couldn't get the grounding bolt on. I would have had to undo everything to put the grounding bolt on. DOH! :mad:

I took the lock washer on there and made sure it was on nice and tight with some locktite. It felt very secure. Hopefully it'll stay put.

Update:

Just about finished up everything.

Mounted the Junction box and FIA2 in the glove box:

Time to pick a tuner and schedule a tuning session!

fostytou Aug 21, 2007 08:34 PM

Looking very good, you guys are my heroes!

I want to run a setup like this on EMS sooooooooo bad.

evo_rc Aug 24, 2007 10:07 AM

Where is nick's detailed instruction at? I plan to run the same set up. Also where did you get the t-connector that seperates the line to each tank?

Turbo Kyle Aug 24, 2007 03:24 PM

Lookin good

pbevo12 Aug 26, 2007 10:07 PM

lets see some pics of the wires going to the ecu :)

binh Sep 5, 2007 08:31 PM

andddd the results are in...
 
I went to turbotrix today to get the Aquamist kit buttoned up with some wiring, the aem boost solenoid installed, and finally on the dyno.

I have some good news and potentially bad news...

Heres my dyno before the aquamist at 23psi:

http://eden.rutgers.edu/~binhle/Dyno/1stDyno.jpg

Here it is after with the .9mm and 1.0mm nozzles without restrictor pills at 30psi:

http://eden.rutgers.edu/~binhle/Dyno...20(Medium).jpg

Now on to the bad news. Mark was running the car pretty hard on the dyno repeatedly to tune my base map, the aem boost solenoid, and then my car on the meth and 30psi. He let the car sit awhile and cool between each session.

On the final run the coolant reservoir started to overflow. I'm not sure if it was from the repeated runs or from the head lifting...

I bought some ARP's and I'm going to install them tomorrow.

The car drove home completely fine on the boost turned down to 24 psi. No smoke. No hesitation. Nothing.

It made 386whp or so on 24 psi.

I'll install the ARPs tomorrow and turn the boost up to 29 or so and see what happens.

All in all the car is a BEAST.{thumbup}
