Re: Project Lex

Brief update:

Installed new Dist Cap and rotor for good measure, and because they are cheap


New IS300 ignition setup has arrived (to be installed this winter)


Raw materials from Discount Steel to make my own intake manifold this winter because I refuse to pay $800+ for just a plenum


Yesterday


Big thanks to Shane at DB Performance for the dyno time. Never made a clean pass due to misfires above 8psi. Also found I made a mistake hooking up my wastegate. So because of those two problems I went home with a small TO-DO list, and a couple spare parts from Shane's SC300. I fixed my WG issue. And using Shane's parts, troubleshot my misfire problem to the coil, must be old and degraded. Luckily I had a spare Junkyard coil in the garage. Turns out it works like a champ. Car is boosting at about 10-12psi right now, AFR's in the 11's, but I'm going to stay out of boost for the most part until I can get back on the dyno, which should be next week.

Junkyard spare coil installed:


Pile O Troubleshooting parts, thanks again Shane
