also a few more discoveries, i finally found out how my injector resistor pack had been bypassed to accept high impedance injector.

been cut and soldered together by the injector loom plug

sard, or denso 850cc injectors????

i asume these are normal spacers of some kind for the rev3-5 fuel rail???
didnt have them on my rev2.

ive got a new custom exhaust manifold to replace the warn manifold i had in there.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
hopefully this will do me well.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
custom, 1 of a kind based on the Apexi design, manifold is now finished, but i got no finished pics of this just yet
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
i rearranged my dash slightly.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
sold the din panel gauges, and just replaced with a oem cd rack.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
ive relocated the blitz EBC into this rack as well as placed my AEM water injection led here also.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
ive also now hooked up an extra safety feature for the AEM water injection kit.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
so if any errors, low on liquid, etc etc it not only sends error codes to my dash LED, but it also grounds out the EBC to make it run on actuator pressure, so an instant safetly device via a relay.

![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
so apart from that, power fc, manifold, and a new map, and maybe map with methanol injection.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.car should be back to normal.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.and hopefully ill be adding some more boost and creeping nearer to 400hp.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

not sure if ive mentioned this, but one of my cams seems like its always been a tooth out, so it should free up even more power on top.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
fingers crossed anyway.

![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
been a sad last 2months, missed out on meets, and kent runs and santa pod.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
gutted!
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
either way, this car will get used over the winter, just like my old one did, so it wont be having any rest once its back together!!
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Changed the HFH while I had the whole turbo kit off, may as well considering it's only a 5er.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Bloody annoying to get the old one off and new one on tho!!!
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
And I thought I'd try and give the turbo a light coat of the chrome spray I had left over.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
No idea if this will last due to the temps the turbo gets to, but if it works out crap I got some paint remover to take it off.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
But is werth a shot, plus I was bored!
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
New aircon belt on to, and tightened the alt belt.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
New oil drain gasket as well that I noticed needed changing.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Manifold should be back with me this or next week now.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Now due to this stupid ar$e power fc and waiting for it, I may be tempted to fit some stock injectors and just run around on the stock ecu.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Bit of grief sure, but I want to use the fri88ing car!!!
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Anyway

![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
ive been waiting an age to get my new powerFC, so looks like im getting a refund with my supplier and ill get one off ATS.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
(been waiting 9 weeks for it!!!!).
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
anyway, while ive been wating for that, as you can see i decided to get a custom 1 off manifold made based on the apexi design, thatll be with me tomorrow.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
ive also done a few minor tweaks in the bay.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
but until my powerFC arrives, im going to revert back to stock injectors and run low boost on the oem gen3 ecu.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
ive had to sort of my resistor pack back to stock, hopefully its ok.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
also got hold of a gen3 fuel rail/injectors/fpr to just pop back in.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
DAM THAT WIRING HARNESS NEAR THE RAIL!! annoying! anyway that rail is in now.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Just need to wait to fit the manifold and i can fire it up and use it!!!!
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
thanks to dex for supplying me with the rail
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
discovered my larger injectors have an ohm reading 14ohms, and are DENSO injectors.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
also decided id make a nice cheap intake ducting/piping, hopefully feed that turbo nice air a bit quicker.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
.still needs tidying engine bay side, need to cut it to length.
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
also replaced the old and quite frankly oily, burn oil lines sleeves with some new thinner lightweight ones, oil reisstant and can withstand over a 1000c, so should be good enough.
