I am returning my car to stock so I can sell it and buy a new kit. So, are there any suggestions? I don't really want to get a new oil pan, but if I need to, I will just try and go to a car junkyard and see if I can find a wrecked tC there. I am so scared that once I do return it back to stock, it wont run or run horrible. It's just temporary though.

 

dont think about it ending up horrible, cause then it will end up running horrible.

anyways, theres not really much to suggest.

 

Superstitious are we? :D

 

only sometimes.....

 

So why are you doing this?

 

yeah, why would you go back to stock to put a new kit on?
Why not just get the parts for the new kit and swap it? You wold not have to bother with the oil pan tapping and all that junk...or do you need to sell the dezod kit in order to afford the new kit?

 

Yep, I need to sell the Dezod kid in order to afford the new kit. I am just moving on to much better things.

 

it's to bad you dont' have a second car or a bike or something you can use in the mean time, so you can just strip the dezod off, sell it, and install the new kit without havnig to actually go back to stock...

In the first post, you asked if there were any suggestions...what were you asking for input on?
How to go back to stock?

 

Things to make sure, etc. Yea, I do need another car, not sure man. What would you do if you wanted to do the same thing but you were on a tight budget?

 

Do what I did in between kits and just plug your oil drian hole on your pan. the pan was a PITA for me to remove, so I didn't want to swap it back.

 

If I were you I would just buy the new kit already, is it TT? so they can start building it and sell the kit at the same time, if it gets sold take it right away and steal your brothers car lol, or be carless and use a bike, sacrifices does pay along the way

 

you can always walk and get some exercise.... (being a Smarta$$ like normal)

 

You wanna pay for shipping I have an extra I can send you. Then just send it back when your done.

 

All you had to do was ask

I will send you a new pan tapped for the new placement of the oil drain.

Regards-

Todd

 

Hey man, I have decided to just get the manifold, GT3076R, 3" downpipe, 3" s-pipe, and 3" intake pipe with AEM Dry Air Filter. However, I am not sure how the intercooler piping will bolt up with the set up.

 

you can just get a plug for the pan many ways to do this get some hose screw it on cut the hose short and put a hose clamp around a bolt you shove in it dosent sound that great but it works

 

Jeff used Todd's manifold and downpipe with our intercooler piping. Check out April's Modified Mag for pics of it all together.

 

If you do end having to go stock for awhile dont worry. I have the tubronetics kit on my first tC for about 20,000 miles....took it off and sold the car and its still running fine and that was a year ago. Car has 60,000 miles on it now.

 

Yea, but he didn't have the V2.1 manifold. So, Not sure man.

 

I doubt that manifold has THAT much different location from the version Jeff was running. Todd would be able to answer that definitively.
