So I finally got the interior all back in. I do need to figure out the front seat belt buckle and the indicator light wiring so I don’t have to pull the bulb lol

A full detail for the interior will happen soon. I’m also going to install the door panels later on once I know I am completely satisfied with it. This keeps me from banging them up from moving things in and out of the car.

Also deciding on whether I wanna do a black or tan armrest.

NOBODY WANTS TO KNOW WHAT COLOR THE CALIPERS ARE?!? jee they are damn sweet lol

Thank you!

So I finally got her running yesterday and took her for a spin for the first time and let me say this small turbo that was built buy broda805 spools up real quick! I had to be careful tho during the test drive because it deff needs to get tuned, which will be in a few weeks. I also need to install a fuel pump. My buddy's shop (highflowfuel) hooked me up with a 300lph pump. It's his own line of pumps that competes with walbro and are actually quieter.

I had an issue with it not be able to start for awhile and couldn't figure it out even with quickgs on the phone. checked wiring on the cop system, fuses, ecu pintouts etc. turned out to be the magnets on the CPs not getting a clear signal to the aem. Broda805 adjusted the magnets or what ever you call those things inside so they are almost touching than bam fired right up. So if you do the cop system with the 7mgte CPs and have an issue with it, I'd clean it up and adjust it. That maybe all you need. In my case it was.

Here's a short video of it running



SETUP:
AEM v1 1101
COP w/ 7mgte cps
550cc rx7 injectors
300L fuel pump
t60-1 garret
38mm tial open WG
stock GE HG (until I swap my rebuilt head and TT HG)
GE intake plunem
3" exhaust
AEM analog wideband
glowshift boost and oil pressure guages

**********Attached is a CAL file for anyone with a similar setup above that needs to at least get started. (USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!! I TAKE NO BLAME FOR WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR CAR IF SOMETHING GOES TO **** This worked for my first start up so you shouldnt have any issues.)********************

LINK FOR 1101 CAL W/ COP
