Ok, another very busy weekend.
went and picked up the microtech form Nuk1ear - thanks for that :)
Installed the pillar mount and the AEM wideband + sensor. Such an easy install. I was able to trace the wiring of the boost gauge, to see where it was patched in (more dodgy wiring - sigh).
The Drift Neo gauge is going to be the next to go - it just doesn't match the interior, which is so close to perfect in my opinion. As I'll need a boost controller, I'll be getting an AEM tru boost( which will match the other gauge well ), then appradio and it's done. (theme is black/grey lol)
Having the boost gauge already wired in there was really useful actually- as I was able to trace the air tube, and poke the AEM sensor cable through the same hole.. right next to my intercooler lol.
The only downside is the nforce dump, has the sensor mounted at the wrong angle. the manual calls for a 10degree tilt up, so that any unburnt fuel can drain. Unfortunately the bung points the sensor down. FAIL!
On Monday my intercooler arrived :D
I'm going to need to get some more of those plastic press in things for the pillar pod tho when the truboost comes - I'm fairly sure removing the pillar will destroy them - anyone know where to get more?
EDIT:
with the stock ecu - I'm seeing two interesting things on the AFRs - very lean on idle (I assume this is correct). I'm also getting the Gen2 BOV AFM fun. The HKS bov goes off, and releases metered air that the AFM has sensed from the intake, which makes the afm go from rich to lean (full sweep).
also on full boost, the AFR is going down to 10 (seems very rich?) - may be time for a new o2 sensor too :\
