^Yes, I had to trim the console quite a bit. I think I cut a rectangle about 4" wide by 8" long. I have extra consoles, and I like the gauges down there... so I didn't worry about ruining a console.

Pretty cool. How thick was the mdf?

Originally posted by Schnitzer318is View PostThank you. It's a friction fit, I made it so it's tight. I might go back in and use some very thin and small pieces of double sided adhesive... but really it never moves so I may just leave it as is.

More updates...
1. Got the ICV circuit working finally. It idles smooth now with AC on or off. Still has some stumbling issues (with AC on) when returning to idle at low speed, but it is 100000 times better than not being able to use the AC at idle at all. With the AC off it works perfectly now.
2. Installed a Hallman Pro Rx manual boost controller. No more boost bleed/leak at all. I now have the full 10.5psi all the way to 7000 rpms. :) I can now chirp third gear pretty easily...
3. Changed my gauge setup to something a little more aesthetically pleasing. Also turned out to be more functional as well. I like this much better. See pics.
And the bad news... we couldn't get enough guys for the dyno, so I still have no idea what this thing actually puts down. Suck. I was really looking forward to that. I have rescheduled it for sometime in October/November. Hopefully more guys will want to go out there when it is cooler.
