After getting the car running I've had small lingering issues that look like they are finally all gone. First I had the WG arm coming off the flapper everytime I went into boost ... so I would run around all the time with the WG open. Fixed that with a safety pin. Then I swapped FMUs to get more tuning ability and in the process burnt up my o2 sensor. And this weekend my upper radiator hose sprung a leak and I was leaking coolant. But all is good now. Runs well but runs rich out of boost. I even drew some attention from a group of Camaros on the way home from Dino's last night. Anywho, just thought I'd share. Here are some pics.

is your shit ceramic coated? if so, where did you get it done?

Sweet thura... sweet! So is that a chill factor fmu? Which did you switch to?

Looking great man. Glad to hear that you got things ironed out!

whats are your thoughts on the chillfactory regulator?

likes? dislikes?

what's that red cylinder thing above your intake manifold? looks like a fuel pump of some sorts?

Looks like an Aeromotive fuel filter.

Broken AGAIN!!! :) Now I just don't care anymore ... it's part of the status quo for the car. I'm leaking coolant from a mystery place I haven't found. Eh, I need to fix my motor mounts anyway. Back to the garage with the eclipse ... out comes the impala.

D'OH! :o

Sorry to hear that sir. Best of luck with the awesome ride. :thumbsup

Is that your own custom built kit or did you get it from somebody?

It's an HRC manifold, S20G, FMIC, and piping, with an HKS SS BOV. It's a custom fuel system.

At least it looks good... You'll track it all down, I have faith. Good luck.

thura what are you thoughts on the chill factory regulator like it dislike it ?

the jury is still deliberating on the regulator (I may have screwed something in the internals up during my initial install ... so I'm waiting on rebuild parts for it). But I have to say the service is excellent. I've been able to get a hold of Len for support questions everytime except once.
