Its like 3/8 npt inlets for the aeromotive filter. I am using a 100 micron one that is good for e85 because its a metal filterQuote:

Hmmmm. That's a bit too far buddy. My tuner suggested I mount mine as close as possible to the rail.
I'm thinking of even running 2 of them. One under the car like yours and one on the fr inlet.
I'm not too worried about it. think of our stock units- the filter is in the top of the fuel cage.Quote:

That's true.
I'll be using e85 primarily so im more concerned about clogging up my intank fuel sock after the e85 "cleanse" my tank.... Which is why i have 2 of them lol.Quote:

Ahhh ok thanks for the heads up.
I need to remove my cage again too.
It seems that the hoses in the tank I have aren't submersible
Yea man i used an extra submersible hose and a bolt and made a plug for it that should work for any fuel typeQuote:

No pics- its an easy concept though. I had an extra 3/8 submersible fuel hose laying around so i grabbed a stainless bolt that fit super tight and shoved it in one end of the hose with a hose clamp then fit the other end over the stock return outlet with another hose clamp. No leaks and should never deteriorate due to gas, e85, etc.

Ported blower w/ port matched inlet - lightened rotors- recoated rotors- snout cooler- full snout rebuild.

Gotcha so it's some extensive work there. Do you have an estimate about how much whp is gained from those mods?

Not sure yet- its mainly so i can spin the blower much higher than the rated RPM. With the crank/ boost pulley combo i will be using- i will see what the limits are with these blowers. Once ive tuned on 93 pump I'll be cranking it up a notch and tuning on e85

O yea.. loving it.
Thanks man- gotta love our EP's lol. Put in some serious work today- Happy to say she is all back together and ready to be filled back up with Fluids and started up. Now i just need to schedule a tune... Again lol. Pics to follow tomorrow

Update: put the car back together and got it up and running- just tackling an idle issue now- think my TPS sensor is shot. Anyway- pics:

Thanks guys- waiting on a new Ktuned TPS sensor- hopefully that solves the idle issue.... Then its time for a retune

What issue are you having with idle?

It bounces between 2k and 1k rpm. When i try to slowly bring the rpm up the motor blips then stumbles then goes back to bouncing. The issue started when i had to replace the battery about 2 months ago- i thought it was an idle relearn but i cant keep the rpm above 3k consistently.

Sounds like the tps like you thought. I had a wire lose connection on mine once. Had to run a new wire and it was fixed. So I'd also check power at both ends to make sure they are conductive.Quote:

I have a TPS reading in kpro when the key is on. Once the car is running i have very little throttle control though. i think all these years with solid mounts has finally killed my stock TPS sensor. Since it was doing this before i tore the car apart- and i cleaned the IACV while i had the throttle body off- i am kinda ruling out vacuum leaks and the idle controls.

Tuning apt made for march 22 at IMW on 93 and e85. Should have my new Ktuned TPS sensor by the end of this week to hopefully get the car out on the road for a shakedown before the long ride to the tuner- dyno numbers to follow.

Awesome man. You made quick work of that. Good luck with the dyno apt.Quote:
