Default Finally got the motor in and running! Vid!
So I ended up taking my car to a respected shop around the area to see if they could get it running and sure enough they did! The car has been tuned and I finally got everything in order. I'm super excited but it seems right now that I have some problems with my O2's. It seems that the car runs great when its cold but as soon as it warms up it starts to mis horribly! seems that it runs well in open loop but runs like **** in closed loop... I dunno I'll find out later, but I posted up a vid of the car idling. Idle is a little high but I have to get it tuned again and I'm gonna set it down to about 800-900 rpm. ENJOY!
