So had a fun and longer than normal saturday....turns out me and BoostedPontiac shouldn't work on cars when we are only working with less than a few hours of sleep....lol...we took an entire after noon changing a supercharger snout so i could go back to the stock pulley with the mps setup.The reason for this was,after my trans died on me my friend that i usually work on my car with let me store my car in his pole barn...so...while it was there one of our other friends had a black prix and wanted a stock pulley so i said sure give him mine and i'll get another later...blah blah blah yadda yadda yadda,long story short,pulley went from stock to a 3.2 with no supporting mods and i wanted an mps anyways so i found one with a stock pulley so engine didn't go by by untill i could justify that size pulley.....Now on to the pics!
Here's the 3.2 pulley before!
Bought the necessary gaskets and belt....cough cough....zzp sold me the serpentine belt and not the supercharger.
Good ol josh,i believe at this point he was cussing the car,bolts or some wires out...lol.
Here i believe we were talking about why i wasn't getting a reading on my boost gauge,and talking about the very untouched vaccum lines.
Snouts on,everything's going back together...but first...let's mess with this sticky boost valve that keeps sticking up or down.
Just another view of the 3.8 being on.
Belt just about ready to go on after the last and necessary inspection with the 3.8 on.
Just a few things i didn't mention before!.
1.This car was a virgin when it comes to underhood touching,minus the small stuff like spark plugs,wires,baterry swaps and that sort of thing...so anything factory was breaking or giving us a he11 of a time...lol.
2.We had to make a couple of part store runs for injector o rings and an actual supercharger belt because of zzp's mess up. (The fuel rail and injectors were stuck to the point of me and josh standing in the engine bay pulling on them...lol).
3.The vaccum lines are pretty much all junk,so i will be ordering a new vaccum line kit here soon.
4.And lastly...the reason i myself am not in any of the pics is because for one i was snapping all the pics and for two i droped one of the bolts to the hub in the bumper somewhere so i went on a find the bolt because i am OCD search...By the way josh laughed at me for awhile and then eventually joined in and it magically appeared out of the bumper.
