i just want to clean out the engine bay for easy working, weight reduction, simplified vacuum system and also looks and in the progress add some extra HP.
stock ECU will be programmed by a rotary specialist here in holland that has already tuned a 400+hp FC.
the Apexi AFC will only be used to get trough emissions...


for those who don't have a clue which car this is for:

Where is this tuner located? I'm in Germany and I am trying to find someone who can tune and wire a stand alone. Any info you can give me about him would be good. Thanks!

Electric water pump? Whats wrong with the one on there? Looks like you're gonna have a lot of fun with all that!

there's nothing wrong with this one, only i want to be able to have more control over the temp. and i want to be able to run the pump after i shut down the engine...

texFCturboII

Hmmm... It sounds to me like you would get the same effect w/ a turbo timer. I understand that you would like more control over the water temp's (don't understand why) but I'm assuming you'd lke to keep the water pump running to cool the engine better; timer would be cheaper. But not as cool.

Furb

i already have a turbo timer, but this is not really what i want. it does the trick to make sure i dont kill the engine before the turbo slows and cools down, but i just want the longer watercooling time after shutdown, cause with the turbo timer it only cools as long as the engine is running, and in the same time it produces more heat by idling...
when the engine is shut down, it doesnt produce any more heat and runnning the pump then will be much more effective then with a turbo timer

So you'd keep the fan running too then? I see the light.

that's the idea

Final Run

a lot has happened since last update, with some bad news at the end...

time for an update:

put ont the sway-bars and adjustable end-links
the rear DTSS system removed (sort of "4-wheel steering system")
removed the entire airconditioning and powersteering.
also removed some excess wiring and brackets and added the new plug cables.
removed the windscreen washer reservoir and cause in the future it will have to go when the FMIC comes on...

then came the shitty part

removed the entire exhaust system and turbo and came to an unexpected suprise

the turbo is officially scrap metal!
- i have about 1,5-2mm radial play on the shaft
- the turbine has scraped on the inside of the housing
- the wastegate hinge has worn a little, making it stick in its movement
- numerous cracks in the turbine housing

glad i found this before something bad happened!
now to go over all the options and costs and see what's the best thing i can do at the moment.

in the meantime i will be taking apart the engine bay as planned

texFCturboII

iTrader: (17)

Ouch! That sucks man! I guess it's time to upgrade that turbo!

Furb

iTrader: (2)

manifold is also junk, has 4 cracks in it...







went along with cleaning out the engine bay.
remover ABS, Battery, alternator, radiator, intercooler, oilcooler and more.
the end is starting to show, then i can start to clean it all up and start building again.

Furb

iTrader: (2)

yeah really sucks! but i probably found another turbo, staying stock for now.
will be upgrading in the future, but for now i dont have the cash to build a decent turbo setup...

iTrader: (2)

Gee, I can't imagine why...

some pics of the new turbo:









new window washer tank made out of an oil catch tank i had lying around


because i have decided to get the enginebay painted while im at it, more parts need to come out!


easy working!


the bay is looking like this at the moment, waiting for more parts to come out

Furb

iTrader: (2)

long story short, the engine is out!
pics will do the talking
