[grcuadros]

heres my setup. lemme konw what you guys htink. the little knob near the boost gauge is my JoeP MBC. you guys think the dealer will know its a boost controller since its not in its usual place (under the hood).

I'm gonna guess yes they will know since it's right next to the boost gauge (chair)

LOL that's what I was thinking...cool placement though.

Did you use a primer on that before you painted that?

 

[jersey_emt]

How much boost spike do you get with that setup? Seeing how it is very far from the wastegate actuator.

 

[Notorious]

yea hows the spiking. Thats quite some line to get that over there.

haha i could see it now. Some tech isnt going to know what it is and is just going to keep turning it.

I have a kick ass idea for people with mods getting SOME work done at the dealer.....


HOOD LOCK. $1.99 at Ocean State Job Lot. (laugh)

I actually had two hood lucks on either side where hood pins would be when I had my CivicEX to prevent dealers from popping the hood, etc.

If I get a Carbon Fiber Hood ever, this is what I would do, combo hood lock/hood pins.

I just bought a cheese ass bike lock and wraped it around the rad support. You can pop the hood but you can only open it so far.

I also duct taped the 2 keys somewhere inside the car. They will never find them. (lol2)

 

[03MSPRO]

(mswerd) I was thinking the same thing. Hey what's that knob for...UH, Don't touBOOM!ch that.(owned)

 

[grcuadros]

ha..i have had some problems with people randomly turning it even though they dont know what it is. the vacuum hose from the mbc tee'd into directly into the hose for the boost gauge. when i hit boost there is a sound of air coming thru there so i gotta check that out. i usually drive around 8 psi daily but im not boosting all the time, but when i do floor it it sometimes will spike upto 9, or just a tad bit more. i hang my air freshner on the knob so maybe that will fool the dealer hehe

 

[instylz]

Nothing to check its a bleed type so air will come through it. Nice setup though! if you can get around the sound which shouldn't be too bad you should be ok. (rockon)

Is that the Z8 bracket from 03msp.com? I have that one and I was curious if you had to mod the bracket to get the turbo timer face to stick out a bit? With mine I will have to because its too small.
