Almost done with all the winter upgrades...
I still have to mount my new rear flap (thanks Marcus!) Sync the TB's and adjust the valves.
What I did.....
Remove coil and mount, mounted up jakobs 65,000V coil and Ignition Solutions Plasma Booster. Got some NGK iridium race plugs. 2 steps colder then stock, with a weird ground plug.
Removed all the AC stuff and remounted the AUX Fan.
Fabbed up a new external airbox, it's extremely Ghetto, but will work for a while.
Replaced the ALT, after I broke it taking it out. Total DUMB ASS move, I could not get the bolt off the back, and it ended up turning the stud and loosing the connection.
Installed a 78mm M5 Alt Pulley, still trying to source a PS pulley.
Installed a new thermostat and flushed coolant.
Fixed some broken plastic after my old E3 front lip mated with some R&R tracks
Installed new Kulp Motorsports oil pan. I wish I took a few more shots of the baffles, it has 2 big ones on piano hinges. It's huge!! With the EVO undertray, it touches the oil pan!! but do to the curve it clears ok. I hope the hot pan doesn't melt it. I added over 6qts of oil! Now that it's level, I might need to add more.
Then did some little other things...
I have not driven the car yet, I just finished putting the bumper back on, and lowered it off jack stands. It was raining buckets today, and not good for a test drive.
Here are some pics....
