Re: Random MS3 Chat Thread
12 hours later... downpipe is installed... holy mother of god... never again... ever... everything is working though lol
Re: Random MS3 Chat Thread
doooooood, you should have texted me man, i didnt do anything yesterday
it would have been a 3 hour job
Re: Random MS3 Chat Thread
ahhh my bad, thought you would have PMed me so I thought you made plans.
Re: Random MS3 Chat Thread
12 hours?! Holy faack! What went wrong?
Re: Random MS3 Chat Thread
Nothing went wrong, just took forever to get off the O2 sensors without stripping them (used tons of PB blaster and a heat gun), then wiggling it into place while under the car took a while. I took some breaks and put together my TMIC too so it wasn't just the DP but holy crap that was not fun at all lol... then trying to get the second 02 sensor to reach was a pain but I managed to free the female connector so I finally got some slack in the wires. The exhaust bolts were the biggest waste of time though... I think I spent an hour just getting 4 bolts off. I am going to invest in some impact tools with my crappy tire gift cards I got for christmas.

I'll be doing my BT install on a hoist, I hope it'll make things easier.

The right tools make the biggest difference...I need to move, I really want a lift :(
Re: Random MS3 Chat Thread
Does anyone have a leak down tester?
I need to do a test on another car, no my MS3 but figured only speed guys may have one.

Idk about that...lol...he did come and talk to us when we tuned Phil's car, and he sounded like he was pretty serious in furthering his mods. Maybe a couple of overtime shifts got him a GTR...
Re: Random MS3 Chat Thread

The GTR is on the way, I was thinking to treat myself on my 65th birthday! If I can even afford it then haha doubtful but Im hoping that the MSpeed guys will make me get a GTR as a winter beater to my speed 3

Re: Random MS3 Chat Thread
I need to get a silicone tap for my meth nozzle. Got a couple of q's:
1. I bought the SP kit, will the SP nozzles fit with the DO tap? The DO tap is like half the price.
2. Any local shops carry/or can order the tap? (Alpha?) Alex suggested that I should just get it direct since it's a small item.
Thanks.
