The MAF will eventually be located in a different spot and yea i know its not an ideal spot. The switches are for all the lights and oil scavenge pump and such since i re-wired pretty much everything on the car besides the tail lights.
The tip was nice while it was around stock boost but it was time to go to manual because i want 11's b4 the track closes in the beginning of November and the tip i dont think would be up for the task after trying to throw 16-20 psi at it lol
Just drove it yesterday since the tranny swap and it feels good so far. I will be logging today since i got my wideband and other gauges in so i can actually give it some throttle.

Well i took it for a drive and it felt really good for basically stock ko3 tune, only went a bit on throttle and saw about 4psi at 2900 rpm which is 1000 rpm sooner then the last setup with the tip and gt3071r.
I'm going through the logs now so i can change the boost curve and such. So im pretty excited at the moment lol

I'm working at getting all my annoying leaks dealt with(hate this stuff) and its supposed to snow a good amount soon so I hope I can get some footage of this thing frolicking in the snow Tongue

My last drive with this was super rich, about 9.9:1 afr at idle(didn't have time to change fueling in the tune) but it was still very responsive which seems odd to me but I'll take it. I will be leaning it out today, and hopefully using my 3D printed laser alignment tools to get this thing nice and straight. Last time this was at the track it was a death trap with how bad the alignment.

Here's how I tested my 3D printed pieces on my Audi just to see how it worked(btw it worked really well)

Awesome idea! Do you have the cad or stl files for these parts? Looks super neat :-)

Well I decided to add another variable into the mix Tongue so 2.0 coils are in and it's running. Just gotta adjust the tune for the new dwell settings and to get the air/fuel a little closer.

So I should b doing more testing soon and I also got my season pass for the track which opens in less then a month Wink videos will b coming as I take them!

FYI, pin 4 on the late model connectors is supposed to be a chassis ground, independent of the harness ground that pin2 goes to....  Run pin 4 on all the coils for that bank to a common ring connector and ground it to one of the accessible center valve cover studs, simple enough.

Hmmm....ill try that, can never have too many grounds lol in all the wiring diagrams I see that they both go together.

Yeah, people were doing it that way for a while and then some noticed misfire issues from it.  Revised info here:

Sorry for reviving this old thread but this is just wild. Great job making it go what a tremendous amount of work!  Howd those 3d printed alignment plates workout? Did you ever get this finished or still a work in progress? Just too dang neat to not comment sorry for the resurrection again.
