Nice set up. Your install is very similar to mine (other than the bottle position). I would've opted for a slightly neater look, though. And +1 on Dynotune rating at the crank -- mine are similar.


BTW, are your solenoids bracket mounted to anything? If not,

 

What did you do to your exhaust? how does it sound?

 

ya theyre mounted to the sheet metal wall of the brake compartment...Ill have to take a better picture. Thanks for the comments I modeled a lot of the build off of yours




Its the motordyne shockwave dual. Sounds great IMO

 

Nice. Sounds like a plan!

 

Ah, I figured you had to have mounted the solenoids somehow. Well, like I said, it's a nice set up. Oh and nice exhaust, too.

 

did i read somewhere that you are supposed to get a tune before putting in the utec? is that true? i thought i remember reading about how that way the ecu wouldnt be fighting against the utec. that doesnt really make sense to me, but i swear i read that on here somewhere. am i crazy or is that true?

 

thank you I was going to mount the solenoid bracket off of the master cylinder like yours but the way we wanted the purge to run and just space issues prevented that. If can see from the pic (its a bit small ) theyre actually mounted upside down

well the utec is what you use to tune the car. I think what you may be talking about is that the old utecs had a ground problem that would sometime lead to hesitation higher up in the RPM range.

however the newer utecs dont have that problem and you can just ground it to the body with a snap in plug

 

how do you tell the newer from the older utecs?

 

I dont really think there is a difference. If you're buying it new from a vendor then it will be new but if you're buying it used then I would ask. It comes with a molex connector for the map selector switch or a spare solenoid. The black wire on the molex connector can be grounded to the chassis and you'll be fine either way
