It may end up being brilliant or a bust we'll see

i know what the other tank is for

Shhh Im trying to figure out the best way to do it and keep the spare. I may have to cut out the center of the spare well and drop a skinny down there, or just use one 12 gallon tank! Im not going to make it known untill it is done, So someone cant beat me to it, as its never been done.... As far as I know

[TylerO28]

So the next step this weekend... Will be... Fabbing up an aluminum plate to mount the new battery, and having my buddy cnc me a battery tie down. Get thicker nhra approved j bolts 3/8th inch? And clean the transmission up... Its wicked dirty in there

So today I was able to get into the drivers side wiring and tucked it away...it's pretty clean now...was able to re route the harness that the maf is connected to around and behind the master cylinder and tucked the main harness connection under the front rail.
Here are a few pics...poor quality because I just shot them outside in the dark...with my cell...so um?? Sorry bout that

[kevin splits]

Just got an idea... Googling it right now

[TylerO28]

Hmmm? Idea eh? Lets hear it!

[kevin splits]

Oh. Ordered this as my new battery box:

[TylerO28]

Ok so tucked the evap under the manifold... There is a small bracket under there that if you take the little vacuum hose out of it's little plastic ring, you can then snap the sensor onto the top and it'll be in near oem position...pics?

You bet..night time again though sorry
Hope this makes sense...

[nothing-leaves-stock]

mine, only wires or hoses you really saw were the coil pack wires...after the shoot i even moved the harnes by the bottle...

[kevin splits]

Do you still have that car? Also did you paint the chain cover black?

[nothing-leaves-stock]

No and yes

Jake and cathrine in Maine have her now. the pvw photographer that shot the feature.

Nice. Did you spray it still on the car or pull the motor and spray it, or take it off the motor and spray it? lol

[nothing-leaves-stock]

Pulled top cover off. But sprayed the rest on the car. Just taped it good. Ten polished all the ss hardware.

[TylerO28]

Yikes! Looks good... Now I just need that sri and with my pro.maf and c2 charge piping I'll be happy! I want to get things that clean ultimately...

[thygreyt]

it does look good...

and wow,, thats one hell of a job

[TylerO28]

Moved some more this week...will post pics tomorrow.. Basically the whole right side is clear now... Can't wait for this turbo to show up, so I can delete this whole sai set up

[thygreyt]

[tay272]

I saw your old car at Cult Classic this year. They had it parked right as you walked into the show. Thats a pretty good drive down here from Maine tho.

[TylerO28]

Did some more cleaning... Better battery install, and cleaned up its wiring. Also removed that felt/engine blanket stuff on the firewall.
I also took the engine cover studs at the valve cover and replaced them with regular length short ones
and
I cut the fire blanket stuff along the reflecting metal lined area...so the heat is still under control.but the fire wall is clean now so I'm happy.plus behind the brake booster and master cylinder there is TONS of space for tucking wires

[DriveVW4Life]

Looking good!
How much do you charge?

[TylerO28]

Honestly if you want this done I'm down to just help! Its nothing more than a few hours at most. If I have everything with me!

Anyone that wants advice or help let me know!

to those who dont know, my car is 130 miles away from me, with no ECU and unmovable...

i was getting a reflash, and my ECU crashed... it went into "protected mode" and i sent it today to unitronic HQ.

i had to get the car towed from the event to my cousin's house. hopefully i'll get my ecu by next weekend's, rent a car, drive the 2hrs, pick my car, re clean the bay, THEN i'll take pics

[TylerO28]

Looks like I've started a little trend lol (sarcasm can you tell?)

Um? So I would really think about removing stickers, like the one on your valve cover... I mean its not a huge problem, but that little sticker tells what motor you have, and that in turn makes it easier to work on...,

I dunno I guess it does make that section look nice! I'm going to tear it off tomorrow!

Dude I'm so sorry! Do you know why it went?

I'm thinking about going to my apr dealer and having them flash me back to stock before I get my turbo flash... I'm worried it'll freak out... So you were uni flashed, went in for an update? And it didn't like it?

Hope you get everything back and in order!

[thygreyt]

lol, i was cleaning before the thread was made... but i do agree is that the thread helped.

Dude knowing you, you'll pull the motor, scrub every crevice, tuck every wire and then a month later do it again!
You get down on cleaning things up! Like your audio install...and your battery relocation, I'm gonna tell you I expect to see a nice execution from you!

How long til you get your car back? Pm me the details of what happened asap!

i have been cleaning by hand... soon enough when i get the car (1 week) then i'll clean a lil better... then pics...

i may take pics on the way, but i'll make em public all at the same time.

[TylerO28]

Glad all is well! But yeah I'm going to probably go to my apr dealer and have them re load my factory program... I had heard that this could happen...didn't realize the ecu was so smart/safe
