Now you are back from Timbuktu where I can't reach you , lmaol, and I know Santa came to town , post all those goodies you got from him . IF you forgot to take pictures of all of those AEM gauges and sensors you left in my place this morning, I will take pictures for you, just let me know. Your car would look like the cockpit of a plane with all those gauges. I had 7 on my Red Mamba 1 . I think you have 12 .. lmaol , and are all AEM .. damn those gauges alone should have cost you at least least $1500.
Questions for you.. I need to know where you are installing the following so I can incorporate the AEM plugs for the following sensors ... just give me an idea so I can extend the wires accordingly.
a) AIT Sensor .. do you already have your IC pipings ? Are you getting a bung for your AIT ?
b) Map sensor .. any idea where you are installing it ?
c) Fuel pressure sensor ... in what area are you installing that Fuel Pressure Regulator ?
d) Oil pressure sensor ... are you getting a lexus union bolt or oil relocation unit ?
e) Boost solenoid ...install it near the passenger strut tower ...got that wiring already .
Your AEM v2 which you got will be plug and play ....we would probably need to use a fields harness to connect some of your stuff .. like you would like to control your dual Denso pump with relays so they are not both running always. ...one comes on once you reach a certain boost. We will see , depending on how much stuff we need to connect.
Damn , I bet MVP had been very happy with you lately ..with all the stuff you got from them. While you are in town , go and work on your car . I want to make sure of everything you are planning to install so we can incorporate whatever you want in your harness and your engine bay will look clean.
I will let you know tomorrow of the connectors you need on the harness so you can order them , definitely coil plugs need replacing .. many of the other plugs I can get from the harnesses I have around...no worries.

You didn't post the AEM gauges that are with you. You got the serial gauges. I have 4 of your AEM gauges.. EUGO , Oil & Fuel Pressure and Tru-boost which you actually don't need because your AEM v2 will control your boost. But we will use the boost control solenoid of the tru-boost. I got your AEM Map sensor and AIT sensor.

So,
I figured since all my hoses and fittings are coming in soon I could go ahead and get the fuel tank out and inspect everything out and plan my work accordingly. Well I wasn't expecting to be minus a pump hanger!! Gerrb has a spare he is going to hook me up with though. THANKS GERRB!! Anyway I have decided with the help of my mentor MR.GERRB.LOL that I will go with all -6an fuel hoses and returns. So I will post pics of that install when I get a chance to put it in. [IMG]

Had to disconnect the fuel neck and bottom feed/return banjo fittings-(Pain in the ars)

You will be happy too if we get your SC running instead of sitting on the driveway. But I am not helping you during cold days
, so don't call me ... .. There's nothing you can do now. No more turning back You already bought them but I bet you are well over $18k now...
Damn, you spent that amount of money in 3 months

There are other ways to deal with that though... I would say yes about the shotgun seat, but Gerrb deserves it..hell he probably deserves to drive it before me!!!LOL

Keep those with warranty . The rest , burn them. There's nothing you can do now. No more turning back You already bought them but I bet you are well over $18k now... Damn, you spent that amount of money in 3 months .

I appreciate it! I dont think the guy that is going to let me use his address will do that for anyone else unfortunately! There are other ways to deal with that though... I would say yes about the shotgun seat, but Gerrb deserves it..hell he probably deserves to drive it before me!!!LOL
There are other ways to deal with that though... I would say yes about the shotgun seat, but Gerrb deserves it..hell he probably deserves to drive it before me!!!LOL First off I'm not a baller! I just work a butt load of overtime while Im offshore! LOL There is no way Im at $18K either! well Im not going to add it up to see either.LOL You know I couldve went without all that Gerrb! Just a reminder of how ate up with it I am!! LOL oh well when you have the knack like we do, there is no way to get rid of it. It just starts back over again on another project!
I love your work man. Making $4k in overtime every month so you can finance your toys is amazing !Seriously , knowing every freaking stuff you have bought so far which includes the 1 of 120 1997 Black SC300 ... you better get your calculator ...you are not far from that figure. But it is all good .You work hard for it . You deserve it brother ! We only live once so make the most out of it . I admire you cause at a very young age you can play with these toys without Dad paying for it.
And before you leave again for "in the middle of nowhere" where there is no phone service , make sure the plugs mailed to your place are mailed to me so I can wrap up your harness.
