my FC buildup (single turbo, wolf3d, IC, exhaust, etc)

So, I started with a tII with a fresh motor and a fucked up turbo. After switching the turbo out once to another old unit which failed quickly, i said **** it and went apeshit on the car. This took about 2-3 weeks (6-7 days of actual work, waiting on parts sucks)

heres the photolog of the buildup

(pics of the car stock)

Good to see another Wolf3D user....although your V4 is so much nicer than my V3.1

I see you where able to keep the BAC, which is also an improvement in the V4...

theres like a 40 page chapter in the manual about the IAC control.. its crazy.

it has more features for IAC than like anything else i think

also has a wideband input, and fully setable voltage -> A/f ratio table. which will also be nice
