57264, Project Solar Eclipse IS ALIVE!
Posted by solareclipse98, Sep-29-03 08:25 PM
We got the fuel pressure, we got boost, we got a badass eclipse!

just got done crusing around put 100miles on her changed oil and even pulled 7lbs of boost and one of the silicon joints came off... we had to stop and clamp them back on... at least it's just the one that came off... but we put a total of 100miles on the new engine tonight... changed the oil after 25...

Also has anyone had any problems with the SAFC not retaining it's settings after you turn it off and resets them to different settings? Also the Airflow isn't registering anything anymore aren't I supposed to registering airflow on the SAFC?

It was still functional while driving and tuning... so im not too worried but would be nice to know that everything is working.

dont lean to much with the afc or boost to much to soon or you will spend big bucks for a new motor again. so far i got 2,970 miles about on my new motor. i just recently went to 7.11psi of boost. i plan to break it in nice and easy till 4,000 which should be done in a month most.

I got my motor in last saturday. I drove it to work yesterday and hit 200 miles on it on the way home. So i put the boost controller on it and was running like 18 psi, oops. turned it back down to 12. boost is crack. the car is just too slow without the turbo, i am used to driving the Z so i cant stand it.

Congrats man!
