What was ur aem issue?
ems issue. between 5500 and 9000 on decel, if I tried to apply throttle, nothing would happen until 15% throttle. Then the car would jolt forward. Not very good for road racing....

Those gas stations are on the complete other end of town! I am not over in the area often enough, and I certainly am not going to drive over there just for gas. again, its either 93 or race gas.

haha.
Anyways, I installed the harness today! I also had my tuner stop by and give it a quicky to get it to run. All I need now is the blower back from 928 and a catch can made. Then its off to King for a dyno session!

I know I sound like an idiot, but Ill double check when I get home. I have my diagrams there. I'm confident it is opposite of what I previously posted (what you quoted)
In other news, 928 called me today, found out the "oil slinger" is damaged inside the blower. Of course Paxton will not sell internal parts, so now I have to ship the blower to Paxton to be repaired. I haven't decided to try and see if they will ONLY repair the oil slinger, so then I can send it back to 928 for there bearings and seals. Another option is to have the 1200 conversion done with paxton seals and bearings and be done with it.
Ugh, decisions decisions.
Anyways, Im super pissed at SOS. So many issues with this kit and I blame them. Its a long story and explaining it will do nothing. They will never see another dime of my money, I guarantee that!
This is what happens when your told you can use a 3.0in pulley and rev the engine to 9,000rpm with a 1220SL. In addition to when the magnet on the side of the blower leaks oil because of poor practice at Paxton upon assembly. Im thinking the combination of low oil from two leaks, and over spinning the blower made this happen. KEEP IN MIND THIS BLOWER HAS APPROX 4,500 MILES ON IT. (All caps because Im not happy)

Here is my...umm..hilariously drawn out diagram for how I installed the cam keys.
