    Sickms3's BT Build

    Alan at Edge sent me a base map with increased idle. I've put 100 miles on it and even cracked the wastegate yesterday. Dump tube ftw!!! Justin emailed me yesterday and asked for logs but I've had jury duty this week and haven't been able to meet up with my buddy at NTB to get my AC recharged...

    Yeah, they ran what Manley listed on their spec sheet. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

    You're digging way too much into things. Just let the machine shop do what they do. I couldn't even begin to tell you what they should be nor do I still have the sheet if it was even listed.

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure the downpipe isn't tight enough. As for PWC and end gap, I don't know. That was handled by the machine shop.

    Sickms3's BT Build

    I moved some things around under the intake and got the battery terminal to reach. It's tight getting over the post on the battery but loosens up once it's on it. Ran into some pre-start issues. First, while priming the fuel pump by turning the key to the on position a few times, I noticed...

    Sickms3's BT Build

    What a headache this has been. An uphill battle is an understatement. But for the most part, it's done. I was hoping to start it today, but it started raining and I really didn't want to drive this around and have something happen requiring me to fix it in the rain. So, I'll try again tomorrow...

    BT + 4" God Penis Intake Issue

    No space to do that. I was able to get it on by putting the coupler on the intake first. New problem now is that the HTP battery tray is hitting the intake. Nothing connects to that tab, so I'm going to cut it off. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk

    BT + 4" God Penis Intake Issue

    Not trimming anything. I'm going to try the coupler on the intake first. I'm not really at that point yet as I'm still working on the wire tuck.

    BT + 4" God Penis Intake Issue

    The problem is that I can't get the intake started into the coupler. It has nothing to do with the size of the intake. It's the distance from the end of the coupler to the shifter cables. If I were to move the bracket for the shifter cables and put my intake on, there would be enough room...

    BT + 4" God Penis Intake Issue

    Problem: Intake won't clear the shifter cables and slide into the coupler on the turbo. PTE 5858 CPE Manifold 4" HTP Intake Has anyone run into this problem? It looks like there is plenty of room once the intake slides in, but I can't get to that point because the rubber grommet that holds the...

    Anyone is welcome to come by. Lol I don't know when I'll be done, but the second I am, I'm starting it.

    Sickms3's BT Build

    I took off yesterday thinking I'd finish everything. Nope!! First, I ran into an issue with this hardline to the oil cooler. It was pushing up against the coupler on the turbo which prevented the intake from going in. Made a new line. Plenty of room now. Started on the wire tuck. I have...

    My 2008.5 BM MS3 Build

    I don't know anything about this clutch. As with most things, it's going to come down to how you drive it. I know I'm not expecting the regular life expectancy from my SB 3, because I plan on beating on the car profusely. So I guess we'll just have to see what we see. Hahaha
