Cool deal. I have got to do the FD upper intake mod. I just don't want to go back to front mount IC again. O'well, some times you have to make a comprimise somewhere

Just lettin u guys know in advance I most likely won't be at the meet this Sunday cuz my wheel isn't expected to come in until the Monday after, but if anyone is interested (and if the weather holds up) there's a citywide car meet in Charlotte on Fridays that I occassionally go to at a restaurant called Bikin's. I know a couple guys with ridiculous FD's that plan on going to them as well.

You can come without your 7. I can't stress that enough. There will be times for all of us that wwe may not be able to bring the rex. That doesn't mean that you have to stay home.

Woa! Never thought about that . I'll try to stop by and say hi, my Mom's birthday is this saturday and I still have a lot of work to do for school so odds aren't in my favor.


Anyway, Sam, I know you have a wideband, my manual says to solder all the grounds to my lower engine mount, do you think that's completely necessary for the gauge to read correctly?

Hey man you should not have to go thru all that. My wide Band gets its ground from the O2 being in the Down pipe.

I'm installing mine about 4 feet down from the turbo to prolong the life of the sensor, so you used the 0-1v wire from the stock 02 as your ground for the wideband?

1 and a half feet is good not 4. A wideband ueses a 4 or 5 wire O2 if the AF gauge that you have ueses one to two wires then it is a narrowband. widebands ues a heated O2,So with that said, wideband is 4-5 wire and narrowband is 1-2 wires. So it sounds like you have a narrowband.

I've got the Innovative LC-1 with the G2 gauge, I sure hope a narrowband wouldn't be that expensive . Yeah Idk, I know there can be noise in the system if you don't have a proper ground and noise in the system will give you improper readings....just little nit picky things.

Hate to hear that your moving. We still are waiting for you to come up and join us.

Hey Kory. If the trim that goes above the door openings, at the headliner is in good shape, I would love to have those. Also, if the rear carpet is in good shape. I don't need all of it, just the part that goes aroung the storage bins. You asked
BTW, have you messed with the SA anymore?
