it fit in hazas car, slid right in, than we bolted it in, we had to break half the plastic to get the bolt to line up, but a bolt and a washer and it was on there nice and tight, we plugged the top of the blower with a straight piece of aluminum pushing down a piece of rubber guard to plug the hole



you can sort of see it there

can someone get me a close up pic of that hose, and the white box looking thing? PRETTY PLEASE!!!



here I forgot I took this pic ok now the white faced some what square on the far right with a nipple, and a blue circle on it. where does it plug into? and the plastic hard hose is on top of the valve cover, do I need a new one? Also the nipple on the right of the bypass valve, where does that connect with? It is the brake booster hose correct?

the one with the blue circle plugs into the throttle body nipple.
the one on the motor you can just use a regular small air filter
than the last one is the brake boost hose that usually hooks up with the manifold.

why do you need 120mm bolts for the alternator?

use the 2.5bar map sensor, your 1 bar map sensor will only read so much boost.

alternator bolts need to be longer b/c there the tensior uses the same holes on the engine, so the bolts need to go thru the alternator, and the braket into the head, they dont reach if you try and re use the stock ones

thats the point. we dont have HPT to rescale the values like you do. With Vince, his tunes activate and deactivate PE mode based on boost. when 1 bar (or near 1 bar) of pressure is detected (aka your entering boost), then PE mode turns on. Then all the fueling is done based on MAF readings, not RPM vs Boost vs Load like i believe your tune does.

EDIT:
never mind.... forgot i was in the 2.4 section....lol
