    Its more important to have the electronics functional first.

    Then sort out tune as previously mentioned.

    THEN we can talk headers.
    True dat.

    BTW guys.. look back a page. I posted what the codes appear to be. And my buddy called so I was chatting while you guys posted up a storm.

    Looks like it needs to come visit Uncle Bill. Once I can get my hands on it, then I'll know better what was done/needs to be done.

    John stopped by yesterday for a little bit. We made some progress on his car.

    Pulled the loom off the harness and traced those added wires back. The pcm pins for them weren't fully seated (retaining clip in way) and we pulled them. Then verified and plugged in the MAP sensor, moved where the BCS pulled power. That took care of most of the codes. From there we reran those wires for the baro sensor (didn't see it tucked under teh bracket. That took care of most of the codes.

    A progress pic. John was very calm with his engine bay looking like this.


    Pulled the bin off the pcm and found it to be a Comp G bin with the wrong vin. Reprogrammed him to a GTP bin with the correct vin. This eliminated the last code for manual shift soleniod circuit malfunction. His GT doesn't have the shifter or ttrans for the tap shift stuff.

    When he left there was no check engine lights. Only code that may come back was the O2 because it was based on at least 10 hours with key off. Rerouted the O2 though. It was touching the rear plug wires in a couple places.

    John.. any lights/updates?

    Technically if you put a non compg file on, you are going to be getting some gear ratio codes.... Watch transmission temperature.

    John.Super..

    DH.. It appeared to have a full L32 swap dropped in with trans. I saw no signs of the trans bolts being pulled.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    I missed something though. I didn't scan the trans to see if 3rd gear was 1:1 or not. DH brings up a good point.

    It took ~1week to get the code to show because the 3rd gear ratio was actually reading like 1.04 or something... It was not off as much as the series2 stuff usually is. I ended up changing the sprocket ISS ratio from 22.3 to 22.9 or something.... it was a very small change and made zero mathmatical sence.

    John, could you take an after shot of the engine bay at your convenience? Bill and I are talking, and you should so post up some after shots.

    John... I'm going to see if anyone up your way can scan it to double check which chain/trans is in it. We'll get it cleared right up if it's wrong.

    Ahhh damn.... looks good!

    Few things that over time would make it look hella better. Tint, remove the plastic tail light outlines and get it actually painted, and paint your rotor hats!

    He did a great job. After I got there I was just waiting for him to be like "oh boy this is bad" but it never happened. He was very positive and casual about it like he was just tinkering around in the garage or something. Brilliant!
