Default Few upgrades

I haven't posted here in quite a while so I figured I'd give an update what's changed on my car.
I recently converted to E85 and ended up redoing the fuel system.
I got a Fuelab pump and stainnless

Like I was saying stainless filter element and #8 lines, Aeromotive regulator and LR fuelrail.
Injectors are 1200cc Delphi's.
I changed over to a Vitesse maf setup which made the car drive and feel so much better.
I got to give John at Vitesse many thanks to get the car to run with those big injectors so well.

Looks good as always, tman. What turbo do you currently have and boost do you plan to run?

Nice!! Can you tell me where I can get the filter you have attached to the belt cover? I've been looking for a solution to that...

Its just a K&N breather one by the looks. Just get one with the right neck size, maybe an inch?

So THAT's how the plug wires are supposed to look! Did you add extra wire clips or are those all original? Whole things looking great. Vitesse is a magician getting those huge injectors to idle nicely.

Did you redo fuel lines up to the fuel tank?

If you can find a later set of belt covers, it is actually blocked off. Factory did away with the hose on later cars.

Car idles very smooth at 900 rpm.

Thanks, there's a few extra clips there.

Looks amazing tman! Your car is a like work of art, inside and out.

I can only hope that I'll be able to see it in person again sometime!
