if you go up a few posts back to where I put in the plug for my oil line... UHHHH.... i went too far left and now the oil line is an inch away for the downpipe.... it would suck to be driving or racing and then my turbo siezes and my motor f's up... my friend has turbo wrap that is rated at 500F... I think I am just going to wrap the pipe and also the oil line... What do you guys think?

does your car die even when the clutch is pushed in all the way when you go to park your car or make a turn? it has done that 4 times and it kind of worries me....

Oh my god, I am not the only one whose car stalls @ lights! Yeah mine is too, do you have pullies on your car, crank pulley specifically? My car ran at only 700rpm @ idle before so w/ the change in fuel set up it is stalling out. Good thing is though you can always start it up again.
We are going to try to up the idle, my friend works @ Honda and said there is a way on our cars but if not my dad came up w/ a good idea, stick some type of hosing by the throttle body so it will just add a little to the idle rpm.
Everything turned out OK on my install, let me know if you have any ?'s I just finished up my 14 hour install yesterday and I know what you are going through!
