here is where i am now. the stock ECU is taking a crap on me. it doesnt have any leaky caps on it at all. it just doesn't wanna run the car after 15 mins. i keep getting code 14 and 41 after it warms up, not before.it also wont rev past 2000 rpms and even worse if i try to drive it. can't go past 5 mph.

i ordered the Drift Motion AEM! 1306 bux!

here is the AEM boost solenoid, just have to find a place to mount it.



here is the AEM 3.5 bar Map sensor.



and here is the AEM with the jumper harness attached. i put it on to test it, it works good!
but i haven't found a definitive how to on making the fuel pump kick on with this thing. im very cautious.



that pesky fuel pump ground is gonna be my undoing! anyway i only got it to run by jumping FP and B+ on the diagnostic port.

this is where i am up to now.

things to look for next...

pics of my 880cc injectors
pics of my 7mgte injector resistor and installation.
going to order AEM UEGO wideband.

stay tuned folks

thanks it cost a lot! friggin pearl paint jobs are no joke!

after i get this puppy tuned to my 500hp goal. gonna get some coilovers. and think about an aftermarket radio. the cd changer skips like a kid playing hop-scotch because of the lowering springs.

i used the 2 springs it came with. they were like spring fasteners. i had to use a zip-tie to pull from one side to the other.

this is the front side. it was hardest because i had to get it under the turbo where it bolts to the manifold.



this is the rear. i apologise. there isnt a lot of room to take a picture.

Is there a place to buy that t3 manifold, I am going through the same process as you but need a new manifold as the one I bought does not fit my turbo, hits the cam covers.
