That I am. That I am.

Local speed shop Surprisigly did not have a 4" to 2.5" silicone reducer. The leak has to be frikken huge though. I guess i will eyeball everything again. I do lnow that my intake manifold is a lil leaky but not that super leakfest.

This new NA alternator is being a bith now. It sometimes just dors NOTHING AT ALL and i see batt voltage. Ughhhghh

Talk to Eric. He might be able to do something for you. You don't need anything fancy. Just a nice low drag, reliable, and properly fitting alternator.

Lemme send you my map. It took me 15 minutes to do the fuel but i know there are lots of issues like rescaling. Tuning opensource is actually WAY harder than hydra or any standalone. Very obtuse.

made a crapton of changes to it.
LMK how you like it.

I think that purple is a bit different tint than your purple, i say you send it back and ask for a lighter one.

to be fair, failflora's oil cap was leaking-which is why he replaced it.
