Never been a turbo guy always supercharge V-8's but I could probably be a pair of hands for you. I want to learn so stuff before I turbo my RX-8. Of course after I get back from my deployment

deep speed, you really wanna drive down from aurora? im greatfull

so heres where im at, i re-routed the coolant hoses, removed the hose bracket, i have the exhaust manifold dangling from the car

idk the rules the autoshop has, i know you have to have a shop card to bring a car in but idk about having someone help you out. i dont think they care.

on sat and sun they are open from 9-430, so ill be there at 9, if anyone wants to help out come thru gate 1 (if your not military), make sure you have license and registration and insurance that is valid otherwise you will get arrested. and call me at 862-812-9736

i would appreciate any help, i would like to get everything installed and wired tm so i can roll it out and tune it

most the times ive been there ive had someone come help that didn't have a shop card. they dont really care about the rules there as long as you dont act retarded, technically your not supposed to install anything aftemarket on your car there, but ive done plenty of that... including getting help from the hobbyshop employees to install a catless downpipe.

ill be there installing the guages, boost controller and o2 modifier tomarrow ill try and get up at 7am so i can stop by advance autoparts and get some wiring goodies... i really need some vampire clips

umm yea, i dont think were tuning anything. my computer crashes whenever i use it. i need a laptop with a serial port, plus the map input is reading a constant 31 psi so i think its not working and the tps input isnt working.... tm we can verify all the connections to the ecu, wire that a/f gauge correctly and tidy anything up. i need to make a post looking for a tuning shop in the springs. (btw the base map is there, but its not working because the inputs arent working)
