She runs guys :-) started right up the first time but it wasn't as good as I was hopping. I did make changes in Global and injector timing and made it run lot better but it's still not as it should. This is to be expected when you do drastic changes to your vehicle such as this.

I'll order SS fuel line,AN fittings and wire looms tonight. Next Saturday I'll be driving it on the street :-)

Yeah a lot off people on that forum do. I just haven't use it in a while and I'm not folowing updates that close.

I did replace MAP sensor with basic GM one,log it under liniar MAP,scale it at 5V max at 1bar and lowered global from -80 to recommend-18. Started up right a away and idles now like a champ. I did noticed that idle control valve is not responding well so I'll use one out of my DSM. I just need to make few adjustments before I take it for light cruise-tune such as TPS Volts and % adjusment.

I'm Hopping to have fuel lines,AN fittings,fuel filter,CAS adapter and body kit by Saturday.

God I'm so excited about driving it I just can't wait for Saturday:-)))

This weekend I installed fuel feed hose and Fuel pump. All of it is E85 compatible,I know it's over kill but there is nothing smaller out there that is E85 compatible. I also rewired fuel pump so it's getting always battery voltage.

Yesterday was also the first time I took it for test drive :-)

If I remember correctly it was down for about 10 months now :-(


This picture is good example André

Drove great. That's the thing about ECMlink a monkey could make it run great. ECMlink support is so great all it takes it to add what you have and all values are there so it makes it run a champ.

Yes E85 + more timing and that 62mm 1g TB will make a huge difference. I also got good fuel injectors and all fuel volume it needs.
