Awesome man thanks a ton for that info. I totally agree I really like the "stock" look you have. Did you have to make any modifications to the lower support where the radiator sits?

Would one be able to run a hood latch with a radiator setup like that? I really like the way that looks...

I didn't make any modification to the bottom. I used the two rubber pieces from the top of the factory radiator holder on the bottom of the new one. Made two brackets to hold the bottom in place. I then put a small rubber watcher strip on the top on the engine bay side. If you look from the front the are two holes where your wire harness are hld in place with plastic push holders. I moved my harness to the bottom so you don't see it. But what I did to keep the radiator from moving up top is pushed two of those plastic holders like you use on the inner fender liners in the two holes. It work really well and looks very clean.

There would be no interference with your hood lath or bracket with the way I did it.

Well my new inlectors came and I had the day off finally after a long show weekend. I put them all in this morning and she fired up! Only problem is it idles SO RICH! I sold my hp tuners because I had a serial interface. I needed to be abe to upgrade to 3 bar map. So I have one in the mail. Before I shipped mine off I reflashed it to have the correct stoich value for e85. So I can make anymore changes till my HPT gets here. I noticed when idleing on my wideband it is showing about 9.3x. This wideband is still showing gas afr value. There was fuel coming out of the exhaust. So once I get my new HPT I am guessing I will have to mess with min pulse width and a few other things to get it to idle right. But at least the injectors and everything are working now. Yes I am in my comfy sweat pants haha.

lol Thanks. I just finished it last fall. It has another bay to it that is attatched to this side but there is a wall that seperates them. Makes it nice to keep the welders and welding table ect. over there. So I contacted the injector company last night and told them about the fuel running out the exhaust while running. He gave me the dead time data? I know nothing about this injector s**t. Can anyone shine a little light on the subject. I put my IFR as stated on the data sheet (152lb @ 43.5psi) That is all I changed in the injector tables? Am I going to have to change the injector min pulse width and short pulse limit? If so how do I know what to start at? I also have dead time data from the company I bought these from. I also changed the stoich value to 9.84615 because I am running E85.

Well I ran into more then one problem with the smart fire injectors. So I called Jon at FIC and had him send me some injectors. I just received them today and I am very excited to install them!

Installed j&j engine diaper, new injectors are in and ready. Found out my starter had a small crack by one of the ears so I picked one up today. Need to put that in and maybe sat I can take this thing out for a spin ( weather permitting )

Well was able to run the car a bit and get it dialed in enough to do a wot run. There is no problem With the wastegate placement. 6 lb spring is running 6lbs. It feels fast on 6 lbs. can't wait to crank it up. I will try and get some video and post it up this weekend. Sorry it's been for ever sense I have posted. My wife has me doing all kinds of things now that's its nice out haha.

LOL Sure didn't mean to leave anyone hanging! I have been really busy I have not had much time. I have the car tuned pretty nice on 6lbs which is running right off the lightest spring I have for the gate. I am happy I can keep it that low! The car pulls really hard on 6lbs cant wait to turn it up. It has been raining here for the last two weeks damn near straight! My wife also had the great idea for me to put a year round pool for the kids and build a deck around it. That's almost done with.


I will try my best to get a video this weekend it should be pretty nice out. I did get some video of some quarter throttle tuning. I will post that up until I get you some video you really want to see haha. It will just take me a minute to upload then I will post it up.

Yes it is a t4 PT88. It spools really nice. I can give it more timing down low in transition to help spool even faster but have not had time yet. I just did all my part throttle and dialed in the wot at the 6lbs that it is at. I found the video its uploading now. This way you can hear it at part throttle tuning.
