High temp coated the hot side parts before I wrap them


And I came up with the crazy idea of taking my 2 step harness and building it in to the engine harness so I don't have extra connectors at the coils and a lot less wire running from inside the car to out side. Sooooo I figured what not do the meth and boost controler too. So I'm gonna combine it all as one and relocate some things to add to the overall apperance and get that clean look. What am I thinking

i wouldn't put it in the middle of manifold, my mate had his in one of those spots on the pro flow between the runners,and the sesnor was getting alot of heat soak, he changed it to just after the throttlle body blade with good reading results! meth injection only 383 ls combo.

Well I got my manifolds, merge and down pipe wraped. Got the fan mounted on the radiator and got it all back on the car. For the iat I just ended up putting it where the hole is for the map. Just drilled and tapped it. And then cleared the intake to help it keep its color.

I under estimated how much time doing all this work to the harness really takes, and by the time I get home from work I only have a few hours to work on it. But I'm making progress. I ended up cutting the harness in 1/2 aprox 16" after the pcm. And I'm re routing, shorting some make some longer and trying to hide it all. But it all comes down to time.

I made some good progress its just too hard to post pictures and such from my phone.
But..

I want to log my wideband and I know you can do it threw the egr or the a/c. Well my pcm is a 02 so it dosent have egr. So would I need to log it threw the a/c or can I still use the egr pin?

Thanks, I've been working on it a decent amount over the last month or so. I hope to hear it run again in the next few weeks. Now that the weather is getting nicer and the sun stays up longer I should be able to get a couple hours in a day.

Possibly. I have a stock LQ4 with an LS6 intake and planning on an S375. That's about what that cam is good for, right?



BTW been following this for a long time. Keep up the great work.

I have been following your build. I have a LS fox motor plated and recently sold my meziere pump. I am going back to a stock style pump. My truck pump will not work unless I mill it. What pump did you end up using. BTW nice car!
