Your breaking my heart!!(cryhard) I just ordered the perrin fuel rail (polished).


I am not going to be able to offer the polished option... sorry about that, but all of them are going to have to be bare at the time of shipping. I would suggest shopping around in your local area for whatever finish you would like to put on it.[/QUOTE]
 
Yes! Can't wait to see the results, I knew it would sound better at higher rpm (alright). Don't worry about the engraving or polishing then. I'll just get it polished before it gets put it in.
 
Just got home from the third trip out. Took a drive across town to the machine shop so Kelly and Wes could check it out. On the way home I got a P0507 code, idle RPM too high. Easy adjustment, cleared the code, and will take it back out here in a little bit.

The top end is out of control. The car feels completely different, and I like it. :)

Oh and on another note, my AFR under boost is almost a full point leaner than before. The engine is obviously getting more air now. For most of the MSP's, this is not a bad thing at all, but you higher boost guys really need to watch out for that and make sure your tune is solid before really ripping on it.
 
^^^ Good to know about the AFC. My new fuel rail made everything really rich so hopefully I should be good for a couple of tuning runs and not have to worry about that. I guess your throttle cable is pulled just a little too tightly and that's what tripped the CEL?
 
Hey rich are you still running the potato or are you on the stock turbo? Im pretty sure you are on the potato but just wanted to make sure.

Yessir. I am going to incorporate an easy adjustment system into the bracket for the production manifolds. Just a little added bonus. :)

Not a bad idea. I've been living with throttle issues ever since I installed my 626 IM - it's always bee pulled just a little too tightly. There's actually a method to adjust the play in the throttle cable in the FSM - I just haven't tried it yet. No point now though as this is coming out.

Yeah, with the adjuster on the bracket, it will be easy to get it dialed in with just a 10mm wrench while the car is idling.

I'll have the accelerometer results tomorrow, dyno won't be for a little while I am guessing.
 
No..I need no Dyno Results...Just send me the damn thing....
Now.
 
faith is good but i think he wants to be sure about everything before considering to sell. Like Dyno, a solid price for X amount of people and anything else that im forgetting
 
Average gain from the 9 after runs compared to the 9 before runs (3 uphill, 3 downhill, 3 flat for both)... with a measly 6psi of boost...


Drum roll please........




































































28 horsies! The max hp point moved from 52mph on every before run, to a split between 54 and 55 on the after runs. I did not see less than 24hp gain on any of the runs, most was 33hp on one of the flat runs. The gains are probably even bigger in the higher gears, I could only test from a standstill up through the top of second here in the city. The gains are most certainly there, no doubt about it.

Mission accomplished folks! All that planning has paid off now. (rockon)
