BEGI Kit Pics / FIC Installation
6 Attachment(s)
Though I'd post some pics of the BEGI kit I just received. It's a Stage 1 without intercooler. Looks to be of nice quality. Will get the FIC wired in and working before starting - just need the harness that cjernigan is going to make.

Man i love newly ceramic coated pieces. You doing the install this weekend? Are you going to do your own wiring for the FIC or did you get a boomslang?

Sweet! My kit is on the way. Can't wait till next week. If only I could take a couple of days off!!!
|
Looks awesome! Post the pics of your install so I can live vicariously.
|

|

AEM hasn't validated the FIC installation on a 99-00 so there's no wiring diagram or pnp harness for it yet. Except for the resistors, it seems pretty staight forward - this is how I plan to wire it.

Man you are saving yourself so much hassle by getting this stuff off the bat. Having a turbo kit makes the stress of wondering if something is going to break or fall apart very minimal.

What is that plug or something all the way on the right side of the manifold? http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b3...k/P1010095.jpg How come begi gets the oil from a sandwich plate and not the pressure sender? --- Congrats on the kit, how much did it cost all together and how long did you wait to receive it? |
The "plug" is a port for the EGR tube.
I have a feeling they get oil from the sandwich plate instead because they had a few oil sender "Ts" break on customers. Whenever BEGI has things like that happen they change something. Thus the 10mm studs for example. |

ever removed a oil pressure sender? wouldn't you rather remove the oil filter.
i'm sure the 1/8" bsp fitting wasn't fun either. |

British Standard Pipe thread.

That plug looks like the sprew from the metal casting turned into a EGT probe port. Otherwise I have no idea.

The kit comes with a T-fitting. I picked up the sandwich plate to ease the installation.
