Yeah I still wish I could get these check engine lights off. They are so annoying. Oh well, I guess I can live with it until I can afford kpro (never!)
Maybe 2 years from now!

Pull your plugs, check the gap in them and also what heat range. The reason why you have a hiccup on vac to boost is a common prob with emange blue.

Thanks Jose! Get internet again soon!!
Yeah Glenn, deployments are great from a money-making, I got nothing to spend it on standpoint! I deploy for 90 days in January (full per diem) which will pay for the bottom end!
I've got a couple hiccups right now as well, but we haven't fine tuned it yet. There's no real point since I'll be changing injectors and boost pressure in less than a week. She's safe and running good so we're just going to leave it for now.

LOL - since I'm using up so much bandwidth, I figured I'd better become a supporting member!
Thanks folks, it's the people that make the thread. Some of the same stuff has been posted on other forums (shocking!!), but you guys are the ones who helped make it what it is. I would have definitely fubar'd my motor if it weren't for the folks on this site helping me out!
Enough sappy posting, I'm going to bed!

yeah I'll say.... you're gonna need to be running some major boost to get your moneys worth out of a 3071, then be prepared to hold on tight
As far as the oil temps go, you shouldnt raise it too much, if any. 180s or 190s is pretty common. if its 90+ outside it may go into the 200s. On the track my car tops out at 239, I need a bigger cooler Id like to see it down in the 210-220 range, but I need the room to do it. You're golden if you left room where the air conditioner was... just slip a grid in there and plumb it up. Dont forget to T-stat the feed line though.

nice to see everything coming togethere and running properly man. the D17 custom intake mani is gonna be back in development in a week or so..
but i agree with you...D-series.org just dont hack it when it comes to this car.
ive been schooling kids for months now on clubcivic about boost and what not.. i think they finally got it down. noone ever enters the 7th gen section there..lol
i think once your deployment is over and you move back to the states all of us mid atlantic peeps are gonna have to have a meet . im an hour from DC so it wouldnt bee to hard for me to go there. seeing as i do it every week anyway..lol

hey,
So I read before that your fan doesnt come on after you removed the ac,
shouldnt they just work?Do you still have your 2 fans on the radiator?
Let my know how you fixed it because i am also about to remove the ac.
Btw maybe you can use your ac button for manual switch.I hope mine just
jump on wen its hot enouph for some cooling.
good luck with your 8psi
peace

I didn't think about the AC button as a switch! That's a damn good idea!
My fans never came on no matter how hot the engine got since I pulled the A/C. I still have both fans on the radiator but am just going to run them in a series once I look how the relay is wired up. I let you know which wires I used and how it works in a couple hours.

Did you get the sedan or the coupe? That thing is going to be nice though! It's always fun wrenchin' on a brand new car!
My buddy (the one who was filming the boost runs) has just ordered his 335i twin-turbo monster and we've already found a few things that we're going to do to it when it gets here!
