What about the PCV ventilation? Do you have it just vented to atmosphere? Do you know that can shorten the life of the motor?

well now he (the guy who owns the car) just wants to turbo it regular. So next week he is ordering his turbo, bov, and ic. Im trying to convince him to get real engine management, but he is dead set on using an fmu. I think im going to hit up xenocron and see if there is something he can hook him up with for cheap. Maybe if he can find a deal on something better than an fmu he will go for it, cuz high comp + 8 pounds + fmu = cool piston ashtrays.

imo... an chip kit cost 25$
it's easy to install... or ask a friend that has skill and pay him a beer or a playboy :P
then find someone with a chip burner and make at least a nice basemap for next to free...


this way, it's cost less than buying a pos afc and your setup will be mostly more powerfull and safer
