      Is setting up 2 step on a ms 2 v3.0 basically just a clutch switch and some software work? Or is it more than that.

          still havent fixed the issue of low boost but I'm sure that will be fixed with a stiffer spring. I had whodwho setup the wiring inside megasquirt and all I had to do was run some wire to a switch and a 12v source. its best to use a clutch switch but you can do it with any momentary switch or even the ebrake if you wanted.

            Thanks...I'll have to get in touch with him. Wish I could be more helpful on the low boost problem but I'm fairly new to turbo charging

              so DMV has failed me once again, they took my plates and wont let me register the car until october because its failed smog in the last 90day...... not sure what to , might try getting it registered in a different county because non of the surrounding counties have smog laws.

                      Wow, who would have thought that Nevada was more strict than California?

                      Hope you work it out!

                        Mine did the same, so I registered it in my home town, had the tags sent to my mom, then changed my address back.. Tricky tricky.

                          built a nice screamer pipe out of the stock I exhaust piping. it now dumps near my transmission/downpipe flexpipe area. still waiting on my new wastegate spring should be here the 12th all though the tracking info never got updated in the last week. car should be registered tomorrow out in fernley if everything goes according to plan.

                            How did you check for boost and exhaust leaks?

                            I keep my vehicles registered in lake tahoe for no smogs

                              I know how to do, just checking to see how you did it. I would make an adapter to psi the exhaust so you can check everything while the piping is cold, and spray soapy water like you do for the intake connections. its a much better way of doing it and you'll be suprised at how many leaks you may find. The same goes for the intake side of stuff. Generally pressurize the system from the intake or the beginning for the intercooler piping and again spray everything with soapy water. And again you'll probably be surprised at the leaks you'll find. Been through it way too many tims with people who say they have no leaks and i make an adapter or one ive laready made to psi there systems and it looks like a bubble bath everywhere.

                                E30 registered finally:) first stop light I get to I flip on 2step, build wastegate pressure and then burnout away. new tires are awesome I got like an extra 10mph out of first because they are over an inch taller than my previous slightly undersized tires.
