  1. If you dont want to spend the money with the flex tube I would go straight ahead and modify that dump , Make a tighter radius fit it between manifold and downpipe and have it merge into downpipe with flex or dump it to atmosphere. Even if it doesnt solve your issue its still more * optimal * have to worry about thermal expansion cracking/distorting your exhaust setup edit also if you need more room what about a spacer at turbo a halft inch just at turbo would do wonders down stream. attached is how I would do it.
  2. Yes cut off , cap it (* you dont have to weld it maybe some thin sheet metal clamped down with some tbolt clamps just to test the theory . The reason I suggest this maybe so you dont spend more on a complete redesign of manifold, wastegate, and downpipe. I have seen many adapters that do the wastegate's off at 90 some people do have issues with compressor surge and boost problems but not every setup is the same. Also at the same time lots of people do run it with no issues. I didnt know till last summer street racing a 700hp DSM he had a flex dump. I dont think the quality is the best to be honest. However, I suggested this to troubleshoot and quickly see if the issue is your dump being to short * which I think it is * . OR if the issue is the wastegate angle which probably could be combination of both. . How flexible it is I dont know. But I do have a similar stainless steel flex tub for my radiator piping and you can make a decent tight radius but Yours looks super tight.
  3. @seattlejester did you end up buying a welder? if so did you consider the multi use ones they can tig / mic and arc https://www.harborfreight.com/OmniPro-220-Multiprocess-Welder-with-120240-Volt-Input-63621.html We have Princess auto here and I was wondering the same about a similair unit these multi purpose welders. The one here is from pro point ( the higher end princess auto brand from what Ive seen) it was on sale the other day for 899cad which is about 700usd. https://www.princessauto.com/en/detail/180-multi-process-mig-arc-tig-welder/A-p8611311e now its $1349
  4. Before moving the wastegate entirely or rerouting the dump longer try buying those flexible dump pipes and essentially a screamer pipe. https://www.ebay.com/itm/35mm-38mm-Wastegate-Flex-SS-Dump-Pipe-Kit-Stainless-Steel-weld-flange-Gaskets/173209341778?hash=item285414cf52:g:zp4AAOxy4YdTTWPX&vxp=mtr Your piping looks too short right off the bat I am suprised with this treadstone design honestly its off center and the angle is not optimal. If you do eventually do re route your dump further into downpipe with non flexible joints you should put atleast a flex joint / expansion joint. https://www.ebay.com/itm/38mm-1-5-OD-Wastegate-Stainless-Steel-Flex-Exhaust-Pipe-Dump-Cutout-Valve-4/173204765939?hash=item2853cefcf3:g:bm8AAOSw~gRVxMzY&vxp=mtr Remember your manifold / turbo and downpipe depending on location or material will shrink and or expand all differently.
  5. @sweetleaf I do have have a oil pump shaft and dizzy however I use the distributor for my megasquirt harness's (bench testing). Distributos are still available through Cardone. @LLavecan't remove this tag?!
  6. No worries man not needed just wondering about them they look so good! Definitely my favorite wheel of all time.
  7. Those wheel are timeless ! what size are they and if you dont mind me asking.
  8. Exactly what Madkaw said sell your carbs and go with megasquirt no point in doing a tunable EFI system if its fuel only and the cost is way less to go MS depending on what you have , and what you plan on running.
  9. That does fuel only correct? So you want to keep the carbs and add injectors? sounds like allot of money for a bandaid fix. I would try to figure out your issue first.
  10. Being currently built by Industry Garage. Lots of Carbon Fiber work.
  11. I meant black white according to ms2 diagram is the sensor ground for TPS, CLT, and iat. Regardless if they a.connect internally all ms ground must be connect to a good engine ground and in one lug. Take a pic of your ecu and attach.

I personally run all these products on my 240z Turbo ie MS2 , 14point7 and HDI EBC with grinning results.
  13. You never mentioned the distributor your running maybe I missed. Concerning the ground factory zxt diZZY BLACK connect at end of plug to shield so it's all the same. And diZZY IS GROUNDED TO ENGINE. Ms2 pin 2 is shield however If you look at schematic of ms2 circuit board they all ground to same plane. Pins 1 2 7 15-19 so ye lots of debate on grounds. Even the black white sensor ground! The important part is it grounded and shielded. https://www.diyautotune.com/support/tech/other/grounds/ Also you linked the DIY article and you had the board setup for but not using the high current driver? Which IGN module are you running and what's your ms ignition settings?
  14. I believe you have room with out cutting the back side. Also cutting it would weaken it where it's bonded. You could buy Hokes Derek triggor mount for a triggor wheel. I like how @madkaw did his triggor through engine /transmission plate and drilled a series of holes around flywheel. Using a threaded hall sensor very simple, cost effective and out of the front end clutter going on.
  15. My dream job kind of already doing all these things though. Would be even better working directly with you guys too! Great Company some one take this job before I move my family down to Gainesville.
  16. Yes I spoke to soon I noticed later in the video. However these zeds have so much adjusting it's nuts. Keep up the videos I do enjoy watching the progress!
  17. Your front bumper actually looked normal Like mine when I installed it. I believe your suppose to have the bracket loose ( the 2 main in the middle) mount the corners then go back and tighten it all. I could be wrong buts thats how I did it altough you wanted to tuck yours in a bit more.
  18. If the motor was just build and assembled id flush the system, that would get rid of any particals if there was any and air out bubbles if any as well. Is your fan pushing or pulling? Oh and make sure your fan belt is on snug tight.
  19. Ye still nothing. Now there's no math question but " you did not pass security check "
  20. I found 2 ways of going around this on my mobile phone I would be able to send PM. Then go back to browser and finish conversation kind of silly though. I am using Galaxy Note 5 with CHROME works fine and my PC is Win 10 with CHROME it works sometimes? Second way Desktop Chrome is compose msg (from users profile that you want to PM) add subject HIT tab hit any letter key and then send try adding a small pic just incase. Go to your inbox up top and its there. Select the last message and send person the real message. Before I started writing this post it wasnt working for me meaning I had to do this little loop hole now when I clicked your name and wanted to send a PM Message body showing fine. Perplexing method but try it and let me know if it works.
  21. I can supply you with pretty much most of that list I do have the TPS 240sx plug injector plugs ( crimp style pigtails are ugly) ev1 + denso + ev16 GM and Air TEMP sensors with plugs this week I should be getting metric ones 14Point7 wideband with or with out gauge and MS2 ECU ! Plus you can save on shipping getting it from one place
  22. I also had issues with the LC2 and LC1. Could you tell us which outputs you used from controller to ECU ? and Controller to gauge? Are they tied intogether? Have you selected the proper outputs from controller? Have you tried to re-program the default outputs with LM programmer? Are you getting solid green light on lc2 once on? What are your tunerstudio settings for the Wideband controller? Mind you its really easy to fry an LC2 controller I think mine went out while it was on I plugged in COM serial port. (later read thats NO NO ) Ditto on LC2 using the same heater and controller ground stupid design. The 14point7 units are perfect because they have separate grounds and the Spartan2 was made with mega squirt in mind has a neat way to recalibrate and getting more accurate readings between gauge and EMS. I also tell guys that got my wiring harness to ground MS at battery or block. Chassis ground could get weird especially the s30 chassis harness.
