Few more

A few more pics

I think I'm going to add an oil cooler and boost controller to the immediate mod list.

Planned gauges:

EGT
Fuel Pressure
Oil Pressure
Boost (via boost controller)

Clint is a busy, busy man...lol he has is hands full there, but he's still awesome to talk to on the phone (I have yet to visit the shop!)

I ended up adding an HKS boost controller, oil cooler, and wideband bung so I can add the o2 sensors later myself. I'm also going to handle the interior stuff (gauge mounting, ect) myself. As an ex-stereo installer/fabricator (6 years under my belt) I'm uneasy with letting others mess with my interior hehe

Just checking back; looks like everything fell in to place nicely.

What are your plans for gauge mounting? A pillar? Custom dash housing?

Now that we know you are an expert installer we have to see something extra special! :-)

When will she be on the road again?

Goinging the easy route initally and mounting them to the right of the radio down the side. Theres a cheap plastic piece you can mount them to thats easily replaced later. I know, it's kind of ghetto but I just want to get up and running for now.

Later I'll decide where I want custom pods...suggestions are welcome, although there really doesn't seem to be very many choices.

Hopefully it will be ready for tuning next week. But mike said not to hold him to it so I guess that means a couple more weeks

Question - will the HKS boost controller prevent the sunglass holder from closing? The **** looks like it will get in the way from other installs I've seen.

be careful man, i would say go a little lower psi just to be safe. my motor was running strong when i had it boosted, but then it later gave out of nowhere. just my 2 cents, congrats!

There's a low and high setting on the EVC and it'll def. be on the low setting most of the time.
