Yeah a month or two ago. I didn't notice any difference. I have a new MBC on the way and I still haven't decided what i'm going to do about my WG. Today driving around max boost ranged from 7-11psi and the car only shuddered a few times. I wonder what the AFR looks like when it shudders.

Today I ordered LEDs for all 4 sidemarkers and front and back turn signals, with a relay designed for the LEDs. I'll post up if it all works.

Default What's the relay for...

Does it allow for flashers/turn signals to work properly?

Are you also replacing your gauge cluster lighting with LED's?

If so, will your dimmer function correctly?

I wish replacing bulbs with LEDs was all I had to worry about these days

You should stop by the garage and share my pain.

My Buddy's shops. He has one near Pineville Tavern and one in the North Hampton Industrial Complex (off Jacksonville Rd.)

This is a very nice hijack.

You should bring your car anyway. You should see how much fuel and crap my car shoots out the exhaust while idling. I like to think I'm running it rich so I don't have issues with not being able to get the boost lower than 15 while I'm still on the stock chips.


You should bum a ride from one of the bay area 951's so you aren't stuck in the e38, unless you don't like riding along. You need some boost to get your car working.

Yes a ride might be nice (HINT)

I'm really considering a wideband now, I think I'm going to get a nice check in the next couple days.

Since we're off topic, Keith, did you find LED's for your license plate lights? I've been looking around and haven't found ones that fit.

We need 3893's, but LEDs have different numbering system. I wonder if any of these would work? http://www.superbrightleds.com/BA9S6_specs.htm

I received a nice chrome porsche license plate frame as a bday gift a few years ago so I've been trying to think of a way to adapt LEDs to that.

I'm can't decide between these....
