Finally! Here are some pics of the new fuel system. It consists of the following:
1/2" pickup (with sock filter) going to -10 AN SS hose, Y into 2 -8 AN hoses to 2 Pierburg 255 lph in-line fuel pumps, -8 AN out of the pumps Y back together, -8 AN to fuel filter, to a Weldon boost-sensing...
Here are some pics of the work in progress...I posted the KB install pics a while back and this is the next phase. Been taking forever with holdups on various parts. It's driving me crazy since I've been unable to drive it for a couple of months now. Hopefully it will be finished in the next...
Get about 3' of 3" flexible duct from Lowe's and a hose clamp. Remove the passenger side wheel and wheel well liner. Slide one end of the duct over the tube that makes the hole next to the fog light and secure with a hose clamp. Route the duct around the intercooler plumbing to the hole where...
Here are some pics from my installation of the KB blower. This project is pretty much a step-by-step process, but it is still a pretty big job to do by yourself. Mine was complicated by combining the installation of a PHP intercooler heat exchanger with fans, which turned out to be a big PITA...
I am in the process of installing my KB, and am thinking about the 55# injectors. Has anybody who has done this install found an upgraded fuel rail that will fit? I had the php fuel rails on previously, and there is no way that they are going to fit under the inlet plenum of the KB. Anybody know...
Got bored this weekend and took the cats off my Bassani x-pipe. I had not heard one without cats before and WOH BABY does it sound different...much louder and gnarlier sounding. I scared the crap outta some kid in a rice POS that sounded like a bee in a tin can...he decided maybe he didn't...
I'm getting ready to do some suspension work...looking at what I can do to the IRS to cure wheel hop. Apparently with the messed up geometry there is no complete cure possible, only band-aids that will help to minimize. Should I bite the bullet and switch to a live axle now or live with it...
I just changed the lower pulley to the 6# and installed a custom tuned Autologic chip. I gained about 60 rwhp and 90 ft lb of torque. I also installed a new boost gage to accurately monitor boost. What I see is boost going to about 15 psi until about 5500 rpm, then slowly dropping to about 12 at...
Okay, I'm not trying to weenie this subject to death, but with all of the discussion about CAI's I started wondering whether cold, dense air actually existed in the fenderwell. So I took a Fluke 52 dual channel digital thermometer and ran one of the leads into the hole in the fenderwell where...
Thank you very much - you have provided the solution to the shifter noise problem that I have been fighting ever since I installed my Triax. I ordered the silicone rubber that you specified from Mcmaster-Carr and it completely cured the noise that was driving me nuts. Between the rubber and...
Managed to get in this afternoon. Best RWHP/TQ results 397.2 hp @5750 RPM, 407.0 ft-lbs @ 3750 RPM :D I am happy with this, since I have yet to do the pulley and chip. I think that I am going to get the Metco interchangeable 4/6 lb lower pulley kit.
Finally got the Bassani x-pipe...couldn't wait until the weekend so I stayed up until 2:00 last night getting it on the car. Pretty easy install, except that the stock stuff was a major PITA to get off, especially the passenger side header bolts. I think I woke up everybody in the neighborhood...
