Well..... I did a boost leak test and had a MASSIVE BOOST LEAK ( wont hold more then 1lb of pressure.. ) where I believed to be between the SMIM and head so I took all that shit apart and put some black rtv on both sides of my plastic gasket. Well, after putting it all back together I did the leak test again just to find out that it was actually my Injector O-Ring..... So I'm headed up to Primo to get some new ones and try it again.. I'll keep you guys updated.

Once it warms up I should be good though right? Or do I have to worry about this all the time?

figure out a way to get that iacv hooked back up! There are more then a hand full of people my self included that have done the same thing that you did and all say it sucks. its not robbing you of any power so get it back on there.

^Negative. On a side note I got my injectors sealed up and ready to go. I have some leakage from the tb seals... When I got it all hooked back up I went to start it and the battery was dead...... Well, I'm going to bring my battery to work tomorrow for charging and then see what happens after I throw it back in.

Is there a positive you see to not putting it in besides not taking a few minutes to get it to go back in? It isnt hurting your power at all so why not have it run better? If you ae using a dsm TB then why not hook it up? I can see if you had a q45 or something.

It clears up space. Those coolent nipples catch on my fuel line and I don't like the clutter

This is a very nice car, youve made amazing progress on it as well. Its very inspiring, and a real motivator to continue the visual aspect of my project instead of just focusing on the performance. Turning and stopping fast is just as fun as straight line speed.

Thank you, its nice to see my car making other people feel good because this car is stress and sometimes I don't think I can motivate myself anymore but somehow I keep truckin.

X2 now put it nack on there and quit being a typical dsm'r. I had mine on and I never once had anyone say anything about it being there and you can barely see it.

I don't care that its there.. If it becomes an issue down the road it wouldnt take much to put it back in.. JEEZ you would think this is your car...
