So she runs...that's good - right?

At this point, I'm so close, that it hurts. The car runs and drives no problem...but a bunch of my gauges arent working.

Water temp has no reading, oil pressure stays all the way up, and the stock boost gauge won't allow me to select my stutterbox while the key is on ACC.

Why does this suck? Well the Rev limiter reads off the speedo...if I'm doing less than 2 mph then it keeps the low rev limiter, any more than that and its 8k. Since the speedo is broke the car always thinks I'm @ a stop and the rev limiter is stuck @ 5000.

When it comes to the rest of the gauges, I have to get them fixed, if anyone has any ideas, let me know. I plan to stop d*cking around with the Greddy Type S, and get a 1g BOV, and order some pipes off ebay and a flange for a new uicp.

I take the car to the gym in my town and back, and even under 5 grand, this thing RIPS...the 16g spools just as fast as my 14b, and on butt dyno...GOOD LORD it def feels way faster.

Once the speed sensor is fixed, the pipes are on (and I need 2 nylon reducers from 3 to 2.5), the only thing that will be left is getting my E3 rebuilt, and putting that on with an external gate.

I want to run 25 psi, but 550's probably won't be enough injector for that...anyone have any input on what size to go? I run a dsmchip so its good up to 1000cc.

In any event, I'm happy, REALLY LOW ON MONEY, but I really want this speed sensor and these pipes...someone pm me and let me know whats the least pipes I need to do a UICP and LICP so I can order these off ebay and be done with that.

Thanks for readin...updates coming soon!

    If you plan on running 100% injector duty sure, but that's usually not recommended. Be safe than sorry.
