The flyin Kiwi - ex KFJ
 

I'm the lucky guy who picked up most of KFJ's parts as he moved to Cali.

Firstly I have to say what an awesome guy he was to deal with - he helped sooo much and made it easy to come to a deal (which as you can imagine isn't straight forward when you are buying over the internet, talking so much money, and having to shipping it 1/2 way around the world).

Anyway - The install has been going pretty well - and I thought I would share progress pics. Installing the new injectors and the Wideband (Innovate LC-1) this evening.

oops - mods can you please move this to the DIY section.

Parallel wire those fans! otherwise looks sleek

OMG! is that a breather on your cam cover?!

We look forward to report on the driving experience- numbers etc. :bigtu:

who cares, he's obviously using a map sensor. Unless you're smoking. . .

I guess that comment needed the facetious smiley :hsugh:

i knew you were joshing. I was just being a smartass. ;)

and by smoking i meant, the turbo burning oil

no dont. I've seen so many burned fuses. Do it the right way, better fans or better rad

did he sell the link???

if so thats my old FM Link ECU :bigtu:

Separate wire/fuse?

That breather over the manifold is gonna melt. The rubber softens and the weight causes it to tear, eventually falling on top of the manifold and turning into a pile of rubbery goo.

When you get tired of replacing it, get a metal nipple breather and route it over to the passenger side of the engine bay with a length of fuel hose.

Nope - The LINK I already had.

Thanks for the idea on the breather - Ill do that next time - at $60 a pop (yes I said $60 NZD) - I'm not going to swap it more than once - I'm a fast learner.

Breather???
 

So Miatamad my old friend :) Good to see you half way around the world...

My question, I have a stock ECU with a piggy back, what does the filter do on the breather, also where does an oil catch can fit into this equation (if at all)?

Cheers Gazza

Hey Gazza - Ill call you.

I have 2 years on mine with no melting, although my manifold is jethotted.
