Even though Poodles did it, I don't recommend trying to get the paint off the back of the center lens. I wrecked 2 of them before I gave up.You will never get all of it off, and it's very likely you will scratch the front while you are scrubbing for days. It is NOT easy. If you can afford it...

Cool! So you have one knock wire running from your add-on module connected to the + wires of both OEM knock sensors, tapped in before the ECU?

Yep, search eBay for "innovate display". They have red or blue.

The difference between a stock CT26 and a 57 trim is huge! I'm still stuck running a 57 but it still pulls 372rwhp on pump gas with supporting mods, which is close to double the stock crank HP.

So it's safe to bridge them together? Have you ever tested your system somehow? I've heard that tapping the block with a hammer should trigger the knock sensors.

Luckily, the lip on my Bomex bumper sits higher than a Bomex add-on lip. Plus Randy at BIC built a strong metal support for the lip welded to the bumper support, and I have scraped the bottom on a couple of driveways that would have otherwise surely cracked the heck out of the bumper.

I picked up an Innovative LC-1 on eBay that was pre-calibrated and came with a small digital display. It's worked great since I got it, and I love the datalogging ability with my laptop. However, I had to search the Innovative forums to get my serial port to work with the LC-1, and I still had...

I bought some 2" universal, and it was pretty close, but a bit smaller than stock. I ended up using stock moldings and I posted the roll I bought up for sale a while ago, still have it!

Did you tap into the stock knock sensor wires at the ECU? Both of them or just one? Or is it better to have a separate dedicated knock sensor just for the ESC module?

So has no one dyno'd these cams before and after on a stock head? It's still a debate wether or not they add much power at all without porting the head and using bigger valves?

As long as it's new? I burst an OEM line at 17psi, and it's not like mine are brittle or cracking.

Thanks guys, I totally appreciate the fact that you like it. I mean, it cost me a small fortune, and it was a massive risk mixing all these different brands of parts together that's never been done before. It might have looked terrible, we didn't know, until it was done. I've always loved the...

I just want black lines. What material is the best for holding vac and up to 30psi of boost reliably?? I think my wideband reads around stoich at mid throttle, and was dyno tuned at Titan motorsports by the previous owner. Does the lack of the EGR make it lean at mid throttle? It's pretty easy...

Jdub: The previous owner installed a JDM block (no EGR) and removed the charcoal can. I may look into a smaller 1JZ charcoal can, if it works the same way? I never had any hot start problems since I owned the car with the inoperable fuel pressure up VSV, so I won't miss it. Thanks again for the...

I suppose the best silicone hoses are the ones that have really thick walls?

On my '87, I cut off the 3-button switch assembly from the stock steering wheel, and then visually looked to see which sliding hub terminals went to which wires on the switches. I soldered in extensions from the back of the hub to the switch assembly, which is current sitting under my small coin...

True, but it wouldn't let any air out, and hold the throttle open at 2000 rpm. It needs to let air out, but at 1/2 the speed. Then venting a BOV to atmosphere wouldn't create such a massive spike in richness.

Yep, the previous owner removed the charcoal can. Does the BVSV open when it gets hot? So I would get a boost leak that I missed when testing cold? Also, just wondering what the big vac line that goes near the power steering is for? Mine is an '87

Ok, final couple of questions: - Are the 2 vacuum ports at the top of the throttle body different than the ones after the TB? Last time I looked inside the throttle body, those ports seemed different, being directly next to the throttle plate when closed. - Should my fuel pressure...

Anyone have success installing the Casper or XS knock displays? Write-up here: http://oldschool.supracentral.com/htm/ks_mon.htm
