Haha yeah it is pretty far from TO, we have a strip up here about 1.5 hours away. Will be hitting up more in MN too since there are events more often. PS I love what you did with your AP2 bumper for your overfenders. Did you do that work yourself and any details?

 

Rear bumper is a ASM rear bumper. I did literally everything you see on the car including body work. Front fenders are also custom oem fenders 2 inches wider made out of all metal. Where the rear fender flares meet the bumper I formed it with fiberglass and followed the body line of the fender flare onto the bumper.

 

More goodies arrived today!

Coolingmist injectors
devilsown solenoid
Fullblown TB
AEM FPR
Summit fuel pressure gauge for the oem fuel rail
Forced performance oil restrictor/filter
earls fitting to hook it all up
new oem intake manifold gasket
Used oem intake manifold dedicated to direct port meth injection





Kinda pissed this stupid restrictor/filter is so long, I have no idea how Adam fit this but hopefully we can figure out a way to mount this sucker. Just spent $30 in earl's fittings that look like they arent going to allow me to mount it how I wanted. Back to the drawing board!

 

I didn't screw mine directly into the turbo. I had/have a piece of line that comes off the 90 and then connects to the filter.

I am doing it similar to how I did that one. I'll try to get you a pic sometime tomorrow/weekend.

 

My thought was to include one more of these


Then the filter would be paralled to my drain line and i could run the feed line under the turbo?

 

Yea, thats basically what I ended up doing. I covered all my feed/drain w/the DEI heatwrap though, since everything was so close quarters. I didn't have any issues, but better be safe than sorry.

 

No other suggestions how to mount the oil feed filter?

Here is what I am dealing with that is making me crazy.

- A 1/8 NPT T fitting
- into -4 AN stainless line with an 90 degree elbow at one end and straight on the other.
- Forced performance restrictor/filter has a -4 female input
- Forced performance restrictor/filter has a -4 male output
- Turbo is a 1/8npt fitting.



This looks ridiculous as prone to way too much stress...


Could do this but no sure if a -4 female to male fitting will have enough clearance? $12 gamble if I order it?

 

can't help you with the fittings, but i have a question about the TB. What did you use to replace the TPS on the new TB?

 

Do you mean as far as removing the Tps from the oem tb? Take a dremel or file and carve a slot head screwdriver into the fasteners. They are just screws with no heads. Once you carve a slot into them you can loosen them with a flat head screwdriver and either replace them with new metric machine screws (m5?) or reuse them with a screwdriver.

Hope this is what you were referring to!

Here is a picture if I lost you in my explanation

 

Completely forgot about the pics. But what I did, and am still using is an oil sandwich adapter. I find those oil fittings make it more troublesome, as you are limited.

Looks like this --> https://www.s2ki.com/gallery/image/medium/222199.jpg (random google image).

It has 3 outlets, and you can turn it any direction you need to.

I came off toward the pass side, then down and over the i/c pipe into my sandwhich adapter. Just how I ran it though, no "right" way.
