So everything is good so far but now when i try to run the power wire from the battery to the starter, first it wont reach cuz of the turbos and second, if i throw straight down, it hugs the hotside and im scared, its gonna eat the protection right off and i did protect it but now its too fat to fit anywhere. HOw do you guys route that wire so that it sits safely without harm. And dont tell me to force it cuz i did and it broke the starter so i had to jb weld that sucker.

Also, my car was originally flashed for the TN kit with 380cc injectors. Don't worry, i do have a utec and im gonna get it tuned, however now i have aps 500cc injectors, Can i start it up and drive it to the shop or will it just flood the motor and wont start.

 

as long as you stay under boost you should be able to drive the car to the shop. i dont have the the greddy tt but the hks is not much different. only problem i had with that wire to the starter was i had to shave off a little plastic tab from the starter to bolt the wire on.

 

I'm thinkin about cuttin the wire and extending it but i was just at pepboys and didnt find any kind of adapter or fitting to do this.

 

run the cable in the exact way the factory does it......there shouldn't be any issues.

the power to the starter does sit very close to the oil drian on the pass turbo, but that's the only issue.

 

+1. And heat wrap it.

 

Ok, lol i feel stupid for this but the only reason i couldnt get it was because i was tryin to run the middle terminal to the starter first but today i realized it goes to the alternator first and then the starter. Also that stupid jb weld **** doesnt work. I put the starter in today and as soon as i tighten it a little, it snapped again. I need a new starter or selonoid

 

Doh

 

you can probably have whatever broke off your start welded back on to the starter.

 

Ok so jb welded it again and really blobbed some stuff on there lol and it held up fine and then wrapped it a million times with electric tape. Started the car today with the twins on. But now i can see blue smoke come from the driver side exhaust. The passenger side just shoots out steam like normal. I only had it started for 1 minute so im gonna start it again tomorow and see if the smoke goes away. I checked the return line to see if it was kinked and it wasnt. tomorow im gonna see if i got oil in that intercooler pipe.

Also, does anyone know what the little vacuum port on the fuel pressure gauge connect to. Can i just connect it to any vacuum port or does it go somewhere specific.

 

any vacuum port is fine. that is the vacuum/pressure port for adjusting fuel pressure according to manifold vacuum/pressure.
I am assuming you have a fuel pressure regualtor like an Aeromotive! they have a 1:1 rise rate pressure adjustment to compensate to intake pressure.

 

woah Ed, I didnt know you got your twins put it already! Did UPS refund you? Nice man cant wait to see it!

 

Does it have to be a manifold port or can it be a port on my charge pipe cuz i have a vacuum port there and its not being used.


and vas, yes its installed and ups gave me a grand for it.

 

Nicee! and Ed, I need to come back and do my rear arms! No one wants to do them.. wtff.. lol

 

I got u homie, come on down.

 

you need to use a vacuum port on the intake manifold (i.e., after the throttle body)!

personally, I use a -6AN line from my intake manifold going into a vacuum manifold that has 6 ports to feed all my vacuum/boost referenced items.

 

So exactly what is the little vacuum port on the charge pipe used for. SHould i block it or use it forsomething

 

I did the same thing as Quad...

My port on my charge pipe is blocked off
