Exactly what I was thinking. The FP *Race* manifold is exactly that, a race manifold with huge ports and would be a 100% mismatch with a 16G.
By the time it's all said and done I'd like to see 350-400 to the wheels. I know a 16g can get close, or just above the 300 mark, but I'm sure I'd need bigger. What would yall suggest turbo-wise? FP green is what i was looking at if i were to upgrade

So over the course of the last few days I re-game planned my fuel system slightly. I also had some money to use up so I ordered

Prefilters, fittings, adapters, and Y block.

Today I ordered more fuel system stuff. Ordered my pumps and filter.

Once I receive everything I just ordered I should only need my ethanol content sensor (I had ordered one, but realized I got the wrong part number so returned it), radium fuel splitter (may forgo it, but want to wait til I talk to the tuner to get his opinion on placement of the e sensor), fuel pressure sensor, injectors, and lastly an FPR. I may or may not need it right away. I have one stashed for my 3000GT build I could steal, and I also have one that came with the car when I bought it. Just need to decide what to do there.

Even after I complete the fuel system buy/build I still have a long way to go. It will just be one massive thing (list of things) off the list.
 
Bruh.

I put in the notes when I ordered it to address it to someone vulgarly named. This about killed me. The wife thought it was funny too.

(It’s my new lock cylinder)

Parts for the fuel system started showing up today. Got an adapter and my dual pump mount. My pumps shipped too.

I can't wait to have it all in my hands so I can fab up something that I've never done before.
 
Went and got my first engine stand today LOL shit finna get REAL LOL. Gonna pull motor and trans and start fresh(ish) since I really don't know the history of this motor. Bottom end seems fine though so hopefully just a re-seal will be okay for that. But definitely needs head work and the input shaft bearing replaced so screw it, out it comes!
 
Not today, actually Tuesday but; "pictures speak a thousand words". Anyway, not my fault, other driver crossed 5 lanes of stop & go traffic leaving a Home Depot parking lot running out through the gap drivers were leaving & whammy. I fely like I was doing a TV commercials where the little kid runs out between parked cars chasing their little ball.

This is my 1997 GSX Manual, all factory original except for some Tein Flex coilovers & a OEM style drop-in K&N filter. Sunburned paint is by choice (keeps the pan handlers at bay. One look & they keep walking). Just finish a 2-1/2 year plus dis-assembling, cleaning & replacing anything plastic, rubber, & gaskets that holding fluids from the firewall forward; literally every nut and bolt. New clutch (Southbend), completely rebuilt PS rack, inner/ outer tie rods, oil pan, both fenders, bumper, alternator, battery, etc ... everything apart and complete rebuild. Made it 3,368 miles after getting the tire back on the ground.

Insurance said "gee your car is old, looks like it will be a total". Car's still being moved around. The appraisal is still pending, police report also (police can take up to 2 weeks to do the report).

Told insurance my car will not be totaled, will be repaired at my choice of facility, not my fault-not my problem.

I will need parts help from our community to get this all back together.

Sorry for the long post & rambling but I am still extremely pissed. Wasn't even go fast (25-30 mph at most). Didn't even set off the air bags.

Edit: One last thing- everything worked; power doors, windows, driver's seat, even the power antenna as well as the factory original Infinity radio.

Swear the majority of Tesla owners do the dumbest sh*t. Some of the wrecks they get themselves in always has us and the fire department just scratching our heads.
 
Just finished doing this.

Last event this year where I welded on a -16an fitting to the oem water neck, it cracked and started leaking. Those 30 year old glycol saturated cast parts just don't weld good no matter what you do. So I started making a solid replacement. Still waiting on the billet cap and neck to arrive to finish it up.

I know Eaton made one but I wouldn't give him a cent of my money.

I think there was one other company but it was like $450 and I have more important things to drop cash on, I never had any cooling issues as it was so this will be a good solid replacement for the old crappy cast part.

Sorry that this happened.

After replacing several connectors under the hood, new MPI relay and connector, and new ECU plug C-61, the car connects with ECM Link now. Just need to finish up the fuel system and get the trans installed.
