FricFrac Posted January 25, 2012 Author Share Posted January 25, 2012 I was lucky to get in on the group build for Jeffp's 3" SS mandrel bent system a few years back. Loving it!! Yea I contacted Jeff about it but he didn't have any left and he said it was such a nightmare he wasn't planning on doing another run. Oh well I'll just have to find another way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FricFrac Posted February 6, 2012 Author Share Posted February 6, 2012 (edited) Wow I've put a ton of work into a little bundle of wires over the last two weeks but I've had some really great sucess with it all. The MS3 is running great! Went out for another test and tune today. Told my buddy that the car was running better than I've ever had it run but it felt like I needed new engine mounts as the engine was shaking a lot at idle. He kept saying it was like it had a dead miss. Anyhow we had stopped for coffee and were going to continue our run when we decided to pull the injector plugs one at a time. Pulled injector plug 6 - worse, injector 5 - worse, injector 4 - no change! Put it back on half way and it was smooooth.... arg corrosion on the injector - new injector plugs on the harness doesn't matter if the plugs on the injectors are corroded Wow the car is a new beast and I've only put on a cone filter, removed the AFM with a piece of pipe and a crush bent 3" exhaust all held together with the MS3. Pretty impressed how smooth and how much more power I've got by the butt dyno and no dyno tune either. Moral of the story is 6 is better than 5 on the L6.... who knew! Here are some picturesof the harness right up to the current running prototype. It all plugs into the stock body harness and fuseable link box so I didn't have to cut into the stock harness anywhere. Also the AFM delete, IAT on the J pipe (till I get the intercooler figured out), etc. Edited February 6, 2012 by FricFrac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FricFrac Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 Continuing with the tuning and tweeking. Getting some bucking at low RPM/Throttle. Turns out I was running too lean at cruise and with the AFR/EGO correction turned on it was leaning out my already lean map. Bumped the AFR down and it's running really nicely now. Just trying to figure out why it doesn't like Accel Enrichment. Going through the garage and "cleaning" (eg moving one pile to another spot to get a something then moving another pile to the old spot. It's kind of like those puzzles where you have one empty space and you slide the squares around.....) and found a few bits and pieces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
