I need to do some work on mine soon, what with all the sunshine in my world lately.
Me too man - really hoping to spend time at the track having fun and chilling with da boys and a little less troubleshooting.

I have all the parts for the revised fuel system incoming - the pump and adapter you helped me out with and the corvette regulator/filter.

The tuner had mentioned when I was on the dyno that we were at the very edge of what the pump could supply. Maybe shake another couple HP out with the new pump...not like I need it.

Here's a cool, albeit rather long video for anyone wanting to geek out on how the haltech works. With the VE fuel strategy, it is critical to feed the ECU good data on fuel pressure so in addition to the new pump and stuff, I'll see if my buddy @Matt Romanowski can suggest a sensor to put in as there is no FP sensor currently in the car.

I can definitely get you hooked up! I've got 1/8 NPT, M10, and -3 AN in the right pressure ranges. You're car is going to be killer with the the new ECU.

How are things coming along Jason? Are you close to getting back on track? We finally got my car back out there to get the suspension tuning finished up. Hope all is well on your end and looking forward to your updates!

Wish I had some major news for you bro's... but I don't, car has been on the back burner while my responsibilities at work have been temporarily expanded requiring a bunch more travel than I have had to do in the past. Just not enough spare mental capacity or time to invest in car or track time at the moment.


When life relaxes a bit I'll be back at it. At the moment I'm content living vicariously through my friends track time (including your ridiculous machine John).

Life happens, gets all of us. Took me 5 years just to get my car presentable so it didn't look like it should be parted out. You're doing great!

@zbomb - can't wait to see this up and running. I'm sure you'll get there!
Share some pics of the engine bay - bet it looks awesome.

Thanks Sleepy ! Just have to put in the work - I have all the parts and the plan, and I'm aching to get back on track. My work commitments show no sign of subsiding in the immediate future so I'm going to need to do a lot better allocating my personal resources to get the car done or just send it somewhere and have them do it for me. We'll see - I can tell you with certainty, back on the track in 25 and if I don't get 15 plus days, I'll be dissapointed.

I've been playing with this in the meantime, benefit, I can ride it to work - can't do that with the ole 996.

Damn that must be loud, very nice Sporty. I enjoy my bikes also, the Harley I have run across country twice already with 152 h.p. 120 c.i. glad I had a 7 gallon tank built for the long hauls, and the Bonny for around town. keep up the great build with the P-car.
