you really need to take them off, clean the surfaces, apply and then let dry for 2-5 ish hours. don't try and take the lazy way do it right.

 

damnit. haha i was hoping i didn't have to. i guess ill do it tonight then.

that would also set my AFR's all weird though FACK.!

 

yeah but its a lot safer and will sound a lot better.

POST PICS ASSHAT

 

sorry I could not make it tonight. got back from the gym, took a shot or 5 or taquila and showed my buddy some xbox 360 on my new HD TV.
But yeah, I let my gasket maker only sit for 1 hour on my oil lines and it started leaking again...you gotta wait for a cool engine, take it apart, clean it, apply it, hand tighent it, wait an hour, tighent it all the way down, then wait a couple hours.

 

uh. my cel light comes on after a while and it's because of the o2 sensor.

=|????

 

mine did too. i'm pretty sure its the MAF sensor and not the o2. it comes on after about 50 miles. just get used to it man.

 

aw man. it's something i have to get used to?

ill just put electrical tape over it.

 

i thought yours came on cause your wires melted?
Depending on what map I'm using, I get no CEL.

 

I fixed the wires but then it randomly comes on

 

go to autozone and get the code read and cleared.

 

it'll still come on after 50 miles or so.

 

and......then it turned off as i was driving today lol

 

hahahha damn. i'm getting lazy. havn't even taken one picture yet

 

Damn aen its cool that you actually were able to do a full custom build on your own.

The whole thing with the down pipe threw me off course and i ended up picking up a hand me down stage 0 instead of sticking to my custom build plans.

i'm paying for it now thought since i had to completely rebuild the turbo and buy a different BOV, and scrap the custom intercooler set up it came with...
(sigh) i went cheap and now i''m paying for it.

i also learned about "area ratios" to late the big 16gs are good for street/strip but i do 85% of my driving on the highway, now i realize a .63 A/R is what i should have been thinking about...
live and learn i guess.
any way enough thread jacking!
some new pics would be nice...
