great progress on the build, mate. Those little things always seem like a PITA but it's all worth it once you turn that key for the first time after it's tuned

Than you for the support. It is greatly appreciated. As I'm back at work, I only get a few days a fortnight to work on the car. My engine guru completes the technical stuff while I'm away. So this helps to keep it moving along. The hot side is completely finished and we are working on the turbo induction. We decided to put the blow off valve on the hot side, so that we could keep it neater. We were considering the cold side, but we were concerned by the length of 2" required to get it across the other side of the car would be a restriction. This also reduces congestion in the engine bay.

In this pic, we have placed a 4", 45 degree silicon elbow. So that we can work out where the intake will run and what we need to complete the task. A 5" stainless elbow had been ordered and should have arrived today.


This is a the spacer that I had Plazmaman make to rectify the MAP sensor issue. It will be place between the plenum entry and the throttle body. It was supposed to be O'ringed by them, but as you can see, it was sent without this bring completed. However, they were kind enough to send the O'rings with it. Just another unnecessary frustration.......

nobody said you have to recirculate your BOV

I can't seem to get the pictures to insert properly from my phone. Could a Mod please fix it for me and delete this post? As I would like to make it as easy as possible for members to view.

Pics Fuxored.

I personally wouldn't be happy with the tmap in that location. Lots of turbulence directly behind the throttle body.

We considered this when the problem presented itself. I was fortunate to speak with a friend who had a Nitto plenum about the topic. While his car was being tuned (By Phil Laird), they indentifie reversion from the runners were effecting the Map sensor (which was near the rear of the plenum). To rectify this, they remounted the map to the front of the plenum, as far from the runners as possible. I guess that time will tell, if you are correct.

Btw, thanks for fixing my pics. ☺

Sweet, hopefully i'm incorrect and it will have no issues. My concern was more around the turbulence from the throttle blade at part throttle.

Re pics No probs!

[HI PSI]

After rereading my previous post I realised that I had used incorrect term. It wasn't reversion, it was pulse from the ports that was playing havoc with the MAP sensor.

I will discuss your concern with my engine guy, when I get home tomorrow. Thanks for the feedback.
