That's good news!!! Any new updates? I really hope they do the right thing by you. And don't quit man, you'll eventually go back to the dark side if you do stay NA. When you feel like quitting, remember why you started in the first place!

Getting cold in the NE- about time for winter storage. Changed the oil and replaced the aftermarket thermostat with a oem one. All cleaned up and ready for hibernation:

Aem ver2 progressive meth controller
AIS 18gph meth nozzle
Kpro ver4 upgrade
Merc racing updated aftercooler reservoir
Custom 3.5in CAI
So far- the meth controller has been kicking my ass. Whether it was the first controller being bad to now the wiring connector being bad- I have been chasing these electrical gremlins for days now. Put the controller to the side and got my custom intake sorted and the crank pulley installed. Enough bitching- pics

Still sorting out a new belt size and rewiring the meth controller before its ready to be retuned on more boost and meth. Final installation pics to follow

Very cool! I suggest holding the meth off till last, finish the rest first. I'm not a big fan of meth because of the issues it can cause related to malfunction, which puts the life of your motor in jeopardy. Save it till the end and you can focus your attention and patience on it, because it seems like it'll take every last bit you have. (I have wiring btw, the headaches it causes just makes me cringe). For any wiring issues you may have, hit up [MENTION=867]ryaano18[/MENTION] he certainly can give you advice, he's the wiring guru. [MENTION=56]PetefromtheStreets[/MENTION] [MENTION=40]monjarassi[/MENTION] [MENTION=28]Spaz[/MENTION] should be able to help with the subject as well
Best of luck, reach out to us for help, that's why we're here!
Thanks for the advice. I've been using meth for a few years now and it's worked wonders for me. There are a lot of misconceptions about it and it's safety. In my opinion- get the right kit, set it up right, and tune it properly and you shouldn't have any issues. I'm only stepping up to the aem progressive controller because my old simple boost activation switch finally rotted out after years of service. I just can't believe aem's quality control- I've always been a big supporter of their products but this new controller has plagued me with defects since I got it. I think I have it sorted now but I'm not holding my breath. I will say this though- kpro ver4 is worth every penny for the upgrade....Quote:

Dammit. Please elaborate on the kpro 4. I have been holding out as I have v1. LolQuote:

There is an ethanol input that allows you to tune for e85 and pump gas without needing separate tunes. The Bluetooth is very cool though- I can watch what my car is doing in real time from my iPhone or iPad.Quote:

The stiegemeir logo? It's the company that does the supercharger port and rebuild work. Thanks for interest. The first go with the new jdm k20 setup made 327/227 on pump 93 and 348/237 on e85... All at 11psi. Now I've increased boost, probably looking at ~13psi, added a bigger cold air intake, 3in now 3.5in, added a larger meth nozzle, 14gph now 18gph, and I've switched out to a new fancy progressive meth controller.... All in id guess 15-30 more across the board. We will see though- as long as i feel as though I'm getting the most out of the setup without pushing its boundaries of reliability like the last setup, I'll be happy with whatever it makes.Quote:

New results from the dyno. Big thanks to Derek at IMW as always for doing a killer job. Cold ass day but we got through- pulled out 382whp/254wtq on e85 and 354whp/238wtq on 93, all @14psi. She is back in hibernation until spring.

Doing some maintenance on the car today. Been having lean cut issues after getting tuned- so decided to pull the fuel cage out for an inspection. E85 problems... In tank sock filter was filthy and so was the inline filter. Hopefully fixed the issues... Happy Friday!
