hey sweet, I was just strolling through you posts and saw my name

glad to know it helped man! and you have the same rad as me

can't beat the price on them I had to get one.

oh and yea I went all over town looking for the right size belt. eventually it had to be ordered for like 15 bucks

toadx8u · 08-14-2007, 04:36 PM

mine was 20

also a side note...i deleted the RB iacv and decided to try and use the Q45 one thats built into the throttle body since its based on engine temp and directly effects the butterfly instead of just bypassing air

if that dont work then ill just have to deal with a cold natured beast....

toadx8u · 09-22-2007, 02:10 PM

well its almost all the way back together...heres an updated pic i had the radiator out when i took this cause i was puttin my fans on it... you can also see where i drilled and tapped the intake mani in the water neck to accomidate the water return for the throttle body....

toadx8u · 09-23-2007, 10:43 PM

i also discovered several things wrong....

maf and tps were wired wrong....fixed
tps was bad....repaired
hole in rad from instalation...semi repaired for now
throttle body is leakin...didnt use a gasket when i intalled it....it sounds like a small animal dieing under my hood....ill make something to fix it tomorrow...

1...175
2...170
3...190
4...170
5...150
6...180

Shwag · 09-23-2007, 11:11 PM

Odd compression numbers...

Hole in the brand new rad? That bites dude.

toadx8u · 09-24-2007, 12:37 PM

toadx8u · 09-24-2007, 11:08 PM
