Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Hopefully you guy calibrated the tps sensor and open up the sensitivity and fuel enrichment settings for the larger throttle body.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

um..sure.

anyway, got the new intake pipe powdercoated, and all on the car. Bleed the clutch yesterday morning before work, and drove it around the block. A/F's where all over the place..this car DEF. needs a tune!! Anyway, latest and greatest pics!

Very pretty, except for that exhaust manifold. She really needs a new coat, I'd go with the mink, all the ladies love it.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

What do you use for air metering?

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Chickens or sheep.

(He has a MAP sensor)

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

map sensors are for pussies. Just let the computer guess. RLFebo should know about that. Stock Conquest ecu ftw!

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Hell yeah, who needs real air metering? Im good up to 10psi.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

That is more boost than I am running.
:bullrider:

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

More boost than me too. Looks good, those pipes are huge.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Thanks..yea, I know the manifold is a soar area, as well as afew other spots. I got some fiberglass filler I MIGHT tackle the extra bolt holes on the firewall, but we shall see..

ALL that's left is to switch out the gas, and tune it! Then wash it!

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

get it to it then.

so this weekend?

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

I was shooting for this weekend, but I don't think that's gonna happen :(

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

sad. having all 4 wisdom teeth pulled sucks i be so fucked. sleepy time again soon

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Kindof random on that one Aaron. lol.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

ugh, no props to me for staying up all night and day to help you bleed a damn clutch! j/k

that intake looks good! it's like a big penis under your hood now,

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Which used to be part of my "exhaust" on my car, lol. And I suppose I do not get Good guy feed back until your car revs past 8200rpm or what ever it was?

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

lol, 8 grand..sorry john. I did give props for the re-wire though..and welds. Somewhere on here. I just hope we FINALLY, after 2 fricken' years, got the revving issues fixed!

-A. Swift

P.S. yes, peter's S/N..I'm at his place and too lazy to log him off.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

I got a new nikon digital camera! Not as nice as my old one, but for the price it's not bad! And, it's small! and takes vids! So, here is a few of each of me messing around..

First off, THANK you to Shane, for emailing me a new map to get the car mobile on e-85! That's right boys and girls..the last 3 gallons of 111 race fuel is currently being guzzled by our lawnmower and my ponti-piece-o-shit. The talon is now as of today no longer an E-fuel virgin! I shot these two vids quick..first one is first start up..idle is a bit high, second vid I turned down the idle a bit, but still not quite as "lobby" as the old map..Once the car is tuned, I'll have mroe vids, and a dyno vid or two..Hopefully, coming soon this thursday :leghump:

-A. Swift

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

So when is shane tuning your car?

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Shooting for this thursday. I'm taking the day off to do it. I hope it all works out.

-A. Swift

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

good luck.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

I see no hose clamps on your turbo inlet or on the intake side??

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Yea, I'm still needing 2 clamps..for that pipe..I just got it back from BOB at MAP for the powdercoating..

-A. Swift

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

oooooooh 2 more days. ready?

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

I am indeed. I took all of thursday off. Thought about driving the car to work today or tomorrow actually, but I dunno if I will..we shall see.

-A. Swift

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Cool!! Good luck on Thursday man!!!!

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

drove it today, washed it all, and filled 'er up! sweetness! I missed it!

-A. Swift

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

awesome.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Now, put 400 miles on it this week, and come on the cruise!

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Why does he need miles?

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Is that cause thats how many miles a week you drive?
(Just a guess)


Swifty: I thought you were selling this thing?

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Why would you take a car that has sat for months on end or made a few laps around the block on a 500 mile cruise, a weekend filled with abuse. Same goes for a dyno day...the car should have all its kinks worked out long before the day of so you can show up and have a good time ;)

More like 300, but my point lies in my prev statement. I don't like seeing cars broken down on the side of the road, especially my friends' cars.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

^I don't my friend and is why driving to IA racing low 12s driving back, cruising up to WI for a weekend about 1500 plus miles equals no problem for me.

I thought he has been putting some miles on it.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

I drove it yet again today to and from work. And will be driving it WAY up north to see shane. So, i'm getting miles. It's not like i have a new clutch, or motor. Same motor, same turbo, only difference is bigger piping, tb, wg, degree'd cams, and a real intake. oh, and corn gas. Bout it.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

Don't forget the unfucked wiring allowing you to rev finally.

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
 

yea really, I CAN'T forget about that! I HOPE all is well today..
