you'll need a good bit of intuition for those instructions along with a spell checker . Tim says you can do the install with the motor in the car. good luck with that!
It will be interesting to see your take on how to wire the pump and relay to your ignition coil.

you planning on mounting the pump on the frame rail like in the instructions? I would think there's a better spot.

and ohh ya


dont post again til you have some!

I plan on doing it with the motor in the car..and i know, i have dyslexia and ADD it does not make for good combination. Most of the wiring will be done how me and my friend see fit...

And im sure we will find somewhere better to put it.

PS.

Opening this was like Christmas morning

When it comes to wiring in a scavenge pump this is the best place to start:



Find a fuse in the box that has power only when ACC is on, plug this in and run the wire to a relay. The load on the OEM circuit is minimal to non existant, and the relay does the hard work. Very simple. One of those fuses is for the original cicuit and the other is for the relay.

I ran my boost/EGT gauge on the same cuicuit as the pump. This way if the light on the gauges go off, I know the pump stoped working as well. Never had it happen but it is a nice indicator.

That is a tiny intercooler, compare to every other kit out there.

Ahh, ok. That is huge. Make sure to do a intall thread. So many gus here can chime in and make suggestions worth considering during the install.

Good luck, it is tight under there.

Install might start next week. Im putting in an offer on a house with the biggest double garage ever on sunday. If it takes I will have to postpone the install. On a side note... my dumps already have bungs for my A/f so i dont have to do that!

i would wire it off an injector. you dont want the pump running with the car off. sure they might be rated to run dry, but there is no reason to put undue stress.

did you get the synapse BOV or a tial? what size wastegate springs?

those IC cores are smaller than what we normally see. Here's teh same one on Wongy's 700 hp car, so they must do ok.
