annoying weekend for me
friday
- flattened intake manifold flange
- scraped gasket material off surfaces and cleaned
- found out the laser cut gasket i had my coworker make didn't fit on the car, caused a huge vacuum leak. (used the outdated DXF before I finalized the drawing)
saturday
- hand cut new intake manifold gasket
- scraped old material off, prepped surfaces, again
sunday
- hand cut new throttle body gasket
- prepped both surfaces
- installed everything, works.
a few days ago
exhaust tips
coming soon (tomorrow-ish)
- oil pressure gauge
- fender stripes
- remove and reinstall turbo using Rocksett on housing bolts. |

Well today was interesting.....driving to my sisters house and the battery light comes on....ok....now i'm worried. Keep driving and the radio goes real low....even more worried now....then a couple min later all my gauges turn off....then the car dies right at a busy intersection....luckily i was able to get over to the right AND luckily i was within 3 miles of my mechanic (tow company charges when over 3 miles). So right now she's sitting in the lot waiting to get worked on....which i'm too mad about....any other time i would be pissed but i've been putting off bringing it in for a while now so it's about time i get all these "glitches" fixed. Just hope it's not too much....poor Robin  Def not taking care of her like i should be

I just made a new SC gasket with some blue stuff, what's the thickness on yours? What all kinds of material can he laser-cut? What did you hand-cut it with? |

Finally fixed the window clips earlier today, it took but an hour and now I can use the drive thru and car wash without opening my door!
Thought about replacing the fuel filter but I didn't have jack stands on hand.

Most drive through car washes suck...anytime any of my families vehicles has been through one it has had to be rewashed anyways so there is really no point...not only that but they are more expensive than if you just get out and wash it |

Normally I would clean it myself but I don't have a heated garage and I'd rather someone else clean my car when its below 0 with the wind chill.

Don't be lazy man. That's one of the easier things to do on this car. Chip off the old clips and glue on the new ones. It only takes about an hour, and that's mostly getting the door panel off and the window out. It's easier to do it when the window is out the door.

yeah, this thing is a monster... 400whp would be nice!!!!!!!!!!!
It also include the kit needed to have a 8 rib belt !!!
I'll mod it a little to remove the second bypass valve (previous owner was twincharged) and put my 78mm throttle body... this one is too small
also I'll put a zzp stage 3 cobalt heat exchanger
