so got some parts today and some pics of the set up all im missing is downpipe, being made, radiator which im wainting on ups guy. and whodwho megasquirt. i should have it next week. and i should be starting the car up im hoping next week

[e30 power]

now im not sure what to do about this plug i cant really remember where the center one went to. im blocking off the other two that come from thermostat.






and also do i have to still connect the original 02 sensor to the exhaust and all with megasquirt?
and what size exhaust should i run on this i seen 3" is that correct or can i run a 2.5"

[hokejka]

run a 3"

[hokejka]

esp if you will run a cat. but 2.5" straight pipe u can get away with but it will restrict u in the long run. 3" will 150-200 more

Youl could make a block off plate, However I just got some silicon plugs with some small clamps and put them there. Then I looped the throttle body heater coolant lines and tucked them away.

Keep the ICV, just weld on a little bung to your charge pipe to have it connect.
Get a 3" downpipe and exhaust made. You're leaving a lot on the table by not doing so.
My downpipe is 3.5", which might be slightly overkill, but why wouldn't I want the least amount of backpressure possible?

When you have the wideband, you no longer need the stock o2. You splice in the wideband signal wire to the stock o2 harness and ground the rest at the ECU ground and be done with it. MS picks it up from there.
