Oil leaks all sealed up and she's running ok. Just have some bugs to work out and all will be well

If my lame arse raptor datalogger would have been able to link up with my OBDII, I would have taken her out for round 2 of tuning

How's Swazo running?
Posted By: Swazo Re: Swazo is ALIVE! - 12/03/05 01:53 AM
Good enough to be broken in, then it's time to rent Modular Madness' dyno for a few hours for ze final tune
Posted By: Swazo Re: Swazo is ALIVE! - 12/04/05 12:36 AM
I may have a dyno run by tuesday, before the final tune

I was wondering why my rear bank was off while tuning, and it was soooo loud under the hood.

Aparently, when you delete your EGR.... it's a good idea to cap off the damned EGR inlet on the rear header

Move along, nothing to see here.

Who would have thought?! Oops!

Are you running an atmospheric dump on your wastegate or did you plumb it back in? I thought I remembered you having some problems and saying that you were going to redo it one way or the other. Cant remember now

ha ha...my headers don't even have a place for the EGR...nothing to "worry" about here.

I left the downpipe as-is since it doesn't seem too low once the bumper cover was installed. It's still plumbed back in...... for now.

Problem #2 that common sense should have covered, but didn't....

Aparently, when gas sits in the tank for 2 years..... it is "bad".





I flushed out the old crapoline and added some fresh 91 to break it in. WOW, what a difference it made Brand new Denso o2's are going in saturday too.

I have found some stations with 103 unleaded through out the SL valley for when I'm ready to tune for a "race" tune

What are you, a rookie?

OMG for 2 reasons:
1) That's how long Swazo's been off the road
2) That's some old gas.

where's the 103???
Posted By: Swazo Re: Swazo is ALIVE! - 12/09/05 04:08 AM
What can I say, Swazo has been sitting a LONG time

Taylor, I'll get a list for you. I called Modular Madness and a few other tuners to see if I could find who'd tuned the charcoal grey FMIC'd POS (check the FI forum for the new info) and to see who had the best price to rent a dyno Modular Madness is BTW)

I'll find out tomorrow about the 103 locations. I'm going to try to get in a dyno pull too while I'm there. Fine tune will come with the new year

I had a clogged cat that caused some issues. One being a glowing red header-back exhaust system Check the FI forums for more info....
