ok, a few lessons learned!
What not to do!!!!!
1. Dont move the coils to the frame rail. Why not you ask? Well FD coils typically dont go out. Not only that but it was a directly under my FPR if it should have ever leaked fuel.
Now if you dont have these issues or concerns then go ahead.
2. Dont upgrade to a T2 coil unless your very careful when splicing the wire.
Mine was upgraded and the person who did the wiring grabbed a small shielding wire and crimped it into the hot lead. Over a short time it melted the wires and shorted them out within seconds of causing an engine fire. I was lucky that it was in the drive way with hood up or I woul dhave never seen the black/green smoke.
3. Dont run the stock belt on a air pump delete kit. It allows the pulley on the kit to barely rub the flexible intake tube causing a hole. make sure to go down to a smaller size.
Over the last 2-3 months I have had to redo all the vacuum lines back to stock to try and trouble shoot all the small issues which should be fixed. Once I get a good set of turbos (looking into rebuilds) on the car I will hopefully be back up and running.
I would be lost with out all the help of Dan and Brian at Tweak It Racing in Smyrna. They have found everything listed above, corrected it and have the car closer to being back on the road soon. Thanks Tweak It guys!!!!!!!!
