    Keep in mind the AEM wont read below 10:1 AFR. So it could be even richer.

    Yes, but past that point it appears as dashes: --.-

    Re: Officially, the Official Turbo Minivan Build Page

    Okay got it running right. Turns out the new ECT was bad as well. The alky pump decided it would come back to life all of a sudden... So as it sits now with 15psi and a combo of 16GPH of water/meth it rips the rubber off 1st gear. Keep in mind with an auto and a T04e I don't hit full boost until 30mph.

    So we cleaned it up some more, put on a K&N filter. Right now it's down getting a new axle, axle seal, I redid the oil drain gasket, oh and the starter caught on fire. Pics of that one later.

    I should have it running today after work. Once I do, Simon and Corby better watch out.

    Sorry for the lack of attention here guys. Not much has been going on since winter.

    We have started construction of the 215 CU intake plenum








    The Type-H BOV (we finally got the new BOV in, it's a real SSQV so it better hold some pressure this time)



    We also just installed a FWD Performance Stage 5 chip tune and a 3bar MAP sensor. Maybe we can finally turn the boost up enough and not run out of fuel.

    The intake manifold is being built at my buddy's machine shop. We also bought a little something extra too. All this should be going in by late Feb early March.

    Yeah right, like a Minivan could ever run 11.76 Mr Ryan is stepping it up this year so it's gonna get tougher in the Mini ranks

    Your intake is screaming for an old fire extinguisher weld on mod

    A local guy did away with the window roll up mechanisms inside the doors and just had old seat belt material with a couple snaps riveted in to raise/lower the windows. I thought it was pretty damn cool and he took 30 lbs from each door

    They can but you need a cage to go faster, I for one aren't willing to put a cage in, so thats my limit, or go as fast as possible and get kicked out,

    I would love it. That's up to pops... I think we could take it and modify the collector and bring the compressor slightly out of the hood. Just a thought...

    If you wanted to do that, might as well cut the #3 primary and add some length in it by making a little long radius bend in it. That would equal all the runners out to dead nuts nearly. Then I'd have zero complaints with the piece.

    Tell him to pick it up. I'll even hook you guys up on shipping. I need some extra cash and motiviation. If it's gone then I HAVE to build a new one!

    Sweet. I'm leaning on him hard about it. I think it would be badass to atleast have it mounted up front instead of in the back where no one can see it.
