BLOWER

I'm not sure that Red appreciates the face lift, or being exposed to the neighborhood in full frontal view!

He'll be back.

When your going that slow ... just turn off your headlights, okay ?

It was a funeral procession Steve.

OH SO CLOSE! Looks like the home stretch is now in view. Congrats on the accomplishment so far!

Thanks, it's been a dirt road for sure. And my work is done. SM has the directions, I can't finish it. Here, YOU do it. Sent the wrong fuel pump back, got the right one today without the O-ring in the box with it.

Today I moved Red out of the garage to stink up the outside and put that old fuel pump back in the hole and seal it over most of the way at least. Can use the garage door without blowing us upI hope. DID get coolant in it. But I'll bet the charge system is air bound. It didn't drink enough, it filled up the filler hose before it ever started running out where it was supposed to.

Looking nice!

450 is about right, if you have a good tuner. Find one yet?

A friend had about 460 on his, a non-intercooled V3 with Methanol.

It came with a Diablo in the kit.

It will all be worth it when those 150 horses are available under your right foot.

Less alt drag when lights off..
But with lights on, prevents overcharging the battery?
I'll let FASTED and them guys tell u what you SHOULD do

[pdub]

Sm put together the fuel pump(s) assembly, something I could have NEVER figured out, but there it is.



When he brought that piece over he showed me how the rest of the dang thing goes together. Ohhhhhh, like THAT. Wow, he can study those lousy directions and even figure out what they want.

I'll be waiting to get the fuel pump O-ring gasket, ended up having to order that by itself for delivery Friday. Now I know enough to finish up under the hood. Nearly - I forgot to ask him about MAFia when he was here, but that's nearly a final step anyhow.

I forgot to ask him about MAFia.

Mass Air Flow (MAF) is a sensor in the intake / exhaust management systems.

[Whelk]

MAF.ia is a Mass Air Flow sensor interface adapter. Basicly the MAF measures the amount of air going in to the engine. When you put a blower on itn putsn inn more air than the sensor can handle. So the MAF.ia is a resistor that shifts the scale of the air your MAF can measure.
Your MAF shouold be in the intake tube a foot or so from the throttle body, and the MAF.ia will plug in to the MAF on one side and the harness on the other.

Sweet, I done learnt sompthin' !

so basically it's a bunch of wires with a plug.

[pdub]

Thanks Whelk! Yep, that's it alright.

Yes.. Car runs wonky without it...
