It talks about adjusting the TPS and resetting the IAC. For the TPS they want you to elongate the mounting holes and rotate it until you have 0.54 volts (TPS voltage) at idle. Then they have a procedure for resetting the IAC.
I was thinking this is their way to making it a simple bolt on and not having to get the car re-tuned. I was just going to leave the sensors alone and see if everything works out.

Thanks Larry. I'm hoping it puts out some good numbers. I don't know when I'll get it to a track though. I'm figuring the 10 bolt won't handle what it should put down. I did literately every little thing that could get me some extra HP. Even went with the smaller damper to hopefully free up a little more. I don't really know what to expect it to make but I'm hoping more than 425 rwhp.

I'm going to have Bryan Herter do the tune. He seems to think the monoblade won't be an issue.

I'll snap a pic later, it's just about ready to go in the car.

i was thinking this exactly. paint the accessory bracket! also, get some nice valve covers! everything else is so purdy, those are just eye sores!!

very nice buildup though. best of luck with it and start shopping for a rear

Ha I know this rear won't hold too long. I'm hoping to just get maybe one or two good solid passes to get a good time...then if it goes oh well. Here are the latest pics. It's almost ready to go in it just needs the front suspension stuff. Bet you like those LPP's and the UMI K member huh? I know I do. I'm going to custom do my own true dual setup using part of the LPP Y pipe. Once I get that done I'll definitely post pics of it.
