One thing I havent hooked up yet because of these crappy instructions is where the factory fuel return line connects to now. I am guessing it connects to the line on the FPR that I do not have hooked up yet, but can someone confirm this?

 

^^Yes that is correct.

 

K thanx, now does anyone have a stock 01-03 ecu to sell me, I dropped mine and something inside broke

 

im working on my kit right now too.... the return line was a little hard to feed from its original location... but its managable... did you get a torque wrench that went down to 6.66 ft/lbs of torque for those crank pulleys? or did you just bolt the on? thats whats holding me up...


oh and i need to install the fuel pump too!!!

 

You mean the 6 hex bolts to put the SC pulley on the stock pulley?

I torqued them to 10 ft /lbs because that is the lowest i had, alond with lock tight

 

Just finished the ESM installation, If I were to ever do it again Id mount it in the engine bay and tap in there, not by the ECU. Took me 2 hours. 1/4 of the time it took for the whole SC and AC install.

 

wait you went from a turbo to a Sc? Rare.. you are I think the 3rd owner to go this route. Reason?

 

Yes I did
Reason, no EMS needed with stock boost on the SC.
Had the AEM EMS but took it out, reason being, my insurance wont insure the car without the stock ECU in it and I do not want a piggy back.

Other than that, I dont know why

 

why would you ever tell your insurance company it doesnt have a stock ECU????

 

The less they know the better
