Are you going to need to modify your bumper to fit the intercooler?

It should fit fine.

Installed the Maddog 80% reduction today with Booger Bushings and JohnnyMopar Cradle Bushings.

Compared to stock:

Here's a short video of the throw. It's tight, and it's short.

Other than that, I started routing the vacuum lines today. We're nearly done. I imagine we only need one more day.

Just got back from a four day camp. The day before that I got back from a week long boat trip with some friends. Hopefully we'll get it done soon.

Who wants to see a running video? We'll get the sentry system worked out, fill the rest of the fluids, finish up vacuum stuff, and hopefully be done. Oh, after doing some fuel pump stuff.

Oh yeah, the video. Don't mind the conversation.

Nutmeg · Post by **Nutmeg** » Fri Jul 04, 2008 5:34 pm

Haha, yeah Nitehawk said the same thing. My hair is really long, err big right now, so I guess the hair is similar. I really don't look or sound anything like him though. The video doesn't do justice.

We got the SKIM reflashed today, so as far as I know, she'll run consistently.

Okay, the car isn't quite running yet. We had a setback that I'm going to check out today. Threw a P0508 code and it has problems (big problems) starting and idling, like the timing is off. Hopefully it's just some bad IAC wiring.

yellowpatrol · Post by **yellowpatrol** » Sun Jul 20, 2008 10:54 pm

I feel for ya

Nutmeg · Post by **Nutmeg** » Tue Jul 22, 2008 11:58 pm

Well, turns out the problem was with the MAP sensor. We took it out, and it ran just fine. Once we get just a few small things worked out tomorrow or the next day, I should be on the road! Here's a small video of it running. In limp mode, but still running.

Congrats

lets see it on the road now.
