Congrats.

It sounds that you solved all the vacuum leaks and you have no wiring/ground issues. The engine management is functioning as it's supposed to, even with the 83# injectors.. Glad the shop didn't revert back to stock parts for the test.

Make sure the 3bar FPR is in place and not the 2.5bar.

Enjoy!

I confirmed the car has a 3 bar FPR. I'll have a brand new 3 bar FPR for sale shortly...

Haven't brought it home yet. Need to have the wiring to the left rear turn signal repaired, boost maps set and a few odds and ends done. Should bring it home early this week.

Got my smog test results tonite.

HC 1.3272 Max allowed 2.000
CO 2.8631 Max allowed 20.000
NOx 2.4003 Max allowed 4.000

So passed easily. This was with some E85 in the tank, FQS in position 2, so -5% fuel, Vitesse's "smog" map and the LR 3" cat.

The good news is that w/o the smog testing you might not have found all the stuff that needed addressing, or at least not while the shop still had the car.

Yep. Turns out a bunch of engine ground connections were loose as well, so not making good grounds. Car now is running well, need to track down the wiring break for the left rear turn signal and set the boost maps.
