Re: IT LIVES!!!
It was nice to hear it fire right up on the second try with no leaks or problems. The first turn of the key it backfired, so a simple plug swap on the coils fixed that right up. Not bad for a completely new setup, coils and everything else. I was too tired to set the timing, biss, TPS and fuel settings last night. Looks like a good project for Saturday morning with a thorough detail so it at least looks presentable. I also have to switch over to V3, hopefully that doesn't present any challenges, I haven't even looked at it yet or loaded it on my laptop.

Yep, 2.4 and 16G, back to my old FMIC, all running on E85 or whatever piss in the pump these days. The FP HTA76 is calling my name though.

We'll find out. It's patterned after my last EVO build, that thing was downright nasty on the street after Shane got through with it. This one is a little smaller turbo and less compression, but similar in every other way.
