no dice. so my next (and later on the fix). would be the fpr. i snagged a legit aeromotive a1000 for a good deal. so i had to pick up the 5/16 bung's seeing as switching to a bigger braided line for like a foot or 2 made no real sense.


so save coin,time, and hassle let's keep it rubber.




but, these ****ers were $25 each. so there goes the so so cheap theory.



well thinking i got some tissue sucked up in the valve cover vent. so i removed it to inspect it. looks clean and 0 old gunk in there.




and now i got a new oem o2 sensor off line on the cheap.





so next up was to macguyver a mount for the fpr unit. didn't come with one and even the one it usually comes with wouldn't had sufficed. took me an hr to drill through this with my weak ass drill. then another hr with my buddys cordless drill.





so after a 2nd redux, this is how it's supposted to look.






so since i have a aftermarket unit, it's time to get rid of the stocker piece of c. so finding a m12x1.25 into a 5/16 type bung is almost impossible.


found this cheapo sucker on ebay for 20 beans.





and violia!!




the threads did come out easily, thank goodness. so after chopping around locally. by buddy austin linked me another more/real metal unit.





so i picked up these babies, making fittiment easier.




and picked up some capilars from autozone for less than $160.00 for the pair.




also picked up some front and rear slotted/drilled rotors with ceramic brake pads.





i had to do this 2x. now when putting the front rotors on you need to get ALL OF THE DUST SHIELD off each of the wheel hubs.





like so.





and don't forget to double (thin) washer the top bolts(on each side). when mounting the front ls400 capilars, To clear the rotors.





don't forget to thourghly bleed the brakes after. and you are done!!


and heres the wiring part of it. i got a 7" touch screen and the wiring debacle begins now. 






$20.00 apparently i need this because my sc400 has a amp and i don't need to wire each indivual speaker??


and heres what it looks like wired up









so either my amp is out or something isn't connected right. everything seems to work cept the sound. and my ant dosen't comes up like when i had my stock system. so wth gives???


so,can someone plz tell me what the heck this is???




and this is how it sits. 10 psi max(i need more boost). and some damn coilovers!!.
