Yea... Most of it is fixed. Its just I ordered the wrong air filter, got the wrong belts from the vendor, wrong tail light vinyl... Once I get those parts sorted out I can get the tail lights wrapped and WERE GOOD TO GO haha... Also My wife nad I sold our Audi and got a Volvo S60 so thats been on my plate as well. I had to change the oil (EASY!!!) but change the timing belt and ATF fluid... (annoying)

Just tried starting my car, and it won't even attempt to kick over really… It gets like one rotation and stops… I don't know if its the alternator or whats going on… The car does have its entire interior gutted and I have not installed everything back in to make sure I'm not missing anything…

Good news, car started up. Bad news is that the coolant is leaking behind the plenum. Under the throttle body. Anyone have any ideas??? I remember pulling off a hose back there I will take the plenum off later and take a peek and make sure all plugged up… If not then I have a PITA job of getting a new hose back there. Good news is no oil leaks or gas spewing.

Are you running the copper spacer? If so check connections.

When I was replacing my coolant lines I cut one on accident and had similar issues. What was the running issue?

Running issue????? I burnt out my clutch, then got some new belts and pulleys… While the front end was off I decided to get a Koyo radiator, and a few new goodies. I need to get an air filter as well haha… I also did a wire tuck, and added new AC lines hence why I needed to undo the plenum… BUT it looks like there is an open hose somewhere… I do have a Skunk2 plenum spacer.

OKAY I need help... A local shop here is hooking me up with an intercooler. I currently have a spearco one, but they will hook me up with a Morimoto limited one. I need a little help. My accenting is all gold. Here is my debate. Which one?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mishimoto-Un...9e1e07&vxp=mtr

OR

http://www.mishimoto.com/mishimoto-m...-all-gold.html

A part of me tells me all gold is to much, but its the intercooler so it is kinda a visual piece... Mine currently doesnt have any BLING to it..... But the other one is nice as well. Polished off center gold sides... I dunno HELP!!!

there is a small coolant line running into the throttle body to keep it from freezing in the cold think its on the back closest to the plenum on the botom of the TB
