Warm I want the valve almost 0% open
-
Pretty neat feature. I will try to set warmed idle at butterfly’s and at the ITB air bypass screws. Hopefully i can leave the IAC adjustable bleed closed
-
Now this looks snazzy

PCV question. This isn’t a debate about the need for a PCV vs a catch can. I want true postive vent. I decided I want to use my exhaust to pull the fumes out, to keep the dirty fumes out of my intake. But since I have Fujitsubo. I have true dual exhaust. Is plumbing to one good enough? Should I still use the stock check valve? I would guess it holds back a tiny bit of pressure before popping open? My plan was to weld this bung at a 45 just past my o2 bungs on my exhaust. With the stock check valve in line.

My comment wasn't directed at you.

Well I wanted it flawless. So it takes a while. my system uses the exact pumps and nozzles as the top system on the market.
-
Well the 80s bmw iac is awesome, smaller and nice looking. Let’s no air or minimal amount by when physically closed. Now to find out what pin is positive.
-
It probably took 5 hours to vapor blast all of it. Lots of surface area.
-
E31 is back from final surfacing! Vapor blasting it was tedious. But results areawesome.
-
Thank you so so much. Ordering now
-
Internet is coming up with zero on the plug.

I bought the vdo. Thanks for the help! Now I need to find a pigtail first the harness
-
No throttle blade on any carb or throttle body that I have seen is designed to seat 100%. On carbs that I have rebuilt you can see damage from people trying. I got it to run and idle down, but butterflys stick almost fully. I will fix it right and get an IAC that closes 90-100%. Really I want the IAC off after it's warm. OEMs that do ITB use a large balance log just like this, bmw etc..
-
It lets zero air go by?
-
It’s not about air. But I could have gotten away with a 8mm hole im guessing.
-
Thanks!!
-
2 wire. Simple. It’s a popular iac for modders
-
Butterfly’s on the Jenvy don’t seat well enough at full close. Spring sticks. So snapped closed doesn’t close enough. So this iac won’t work.
-
Well this bosch and all bosch IACs of this style let a ton of air by when closed. Bosch said roughly 30-35%. Which makes the butterfly's useless at idle. My next iac will be a ford. Which closes all the way and only lets a tiny bit of air by.
-
Fully wired. I was able to use the coil wiring and leave original wires intact for my dpo negative trigger and positive.
-
Well ITB with IAC and PCV is all in and plumbed. Only thing left is 2 wires and some software changes. Pretty happy with how it all turned out.
-
now My decision on iac location. I can use the stock 12v + from the coil and also the coil negative wiring for the iac connected to my haltech. So all my wiring will stay the same.

Let's talk brake system design

If you have the money, the zcar kit is pretty darn amazing. It would take the guess work out of all of it. Designed by brake engineers. -

With a 17" wheel you have lots of options for calipers. Google what others use and you could design your own brackets? A few calipers people use are the brembo sti calipers or the Cadillac sts calipers? Sts seems to be every ones favorite for cost. Then you could use a willwood proportioning valve to get your bias dialed in? Nissan R32 calipers are also popular. Tons of options unless you want to clear a 14 or 15" wheel. I have the Zcargarage which is a stoptech kit that was designed with the automotive engineers, the bias is about perfect. It's expensive, but I think its worth it. I wanted 15" wheels and a parking brake, plus as good of stopping as I can find. -
It’s a Bosch from a bmw
