Yeah but this guy has exactly 50 posts, and 8 months later the chances of him even remotely giving a ---- that you gave him a pat on the back are slim. He posted not too long ago about a turbocharged mk1 mr2 that he had just built, he may not even have that ae86 thing anymore.

When you bump posts to tell someone "good job, that looks good, your a good fabricator" etc. it appears to the rest of HMT that you are a post ----- and simply trying to get your post count up, regardless of your good intentions.

Might be better to keep such comments, and if necessary specific questions limited to PM's. Your more likely to get the information your looking for, and less likely to piss off others.

I think what hitchhikkr is trying to say is......

We kind of all hope you die in a fire.

fair enough. i'll look at post history in future for those whos eyes bleed when they see a date that isnt in the last 0.68735 weeks.

the chances of me dying in a fire are higher than you might think. the 044 would certainly fuel one fiercely for some time.

actually i have lots of updates but no video.

thanks for bumping the thread... i went back to lurking and reading. you get called a ------ less when you dont post.

i found out what happened causing the car to not run right in that night video. the douchenozzel i got the spare engine off of destroyed it... when i pulled it for the rebuild i noticed that the distributor drive on the cam was missing teeth and was ------- the timing up... it was making like 8psi at 1200rpm and wouldnt rev past 1500rpm haha

now for some updated pictures and mods:
. 7 rib bottom end with stock rods, crank, 8 to 1 cr forged ceramic coated pistons, and hks 2mm multilayer steel headgadket.
. Blacktop ITBs with custom intake plenum and mk4 550s on the way.
. same ssautomanifold but now with a brand spanking new out of the box from the cummins dealer holset hx30w. i need a 1 inch spacer to lower the turbo so the compressor housing doesnt hit the manifold.
. all new kyb agx to compliment the existing trd/GC (eibach) springs.
. completely adjustable rear 4 links and panhard bar. adjustable front tension rods with tension rod brace. and 35mm nrcas.
. new sparco sprint racing seat... the corbeaus are going into my pickup.
. my birthday is on the 18th and my wife is putting together a buy nathan a haltec ecu fund. so ill have a haltec and all new sensors/wiring going in soon.
. im also fitting some trd n2 flares so i can run some real tire.

Why Haltech? E8, right?

Cool I like those even though most people think they're ugly as ----. Then again, I drive a crx.

either that or the e6x its 1030 for the e6x, and about 1260 for the e8

either way ive got an engine that will handle 20+psi out of the holset... so im getting a standalone that will complement the hardware.

any idea if there is anyone on the site that can custom machine the spacer i need... basically a 3/4 or 1 inch t3 flange?

I thought you wanted a speed density ITB setup, E6x won't do that IIRC.

both of them will run up to a 5bar map sensor.
