I have the TRM tune for 91 octane on my s50. Love every bit of it.
The car won't start with the MAF plugged in. Plugged the MAF in while the car is idling, and it dies on throttle input.
I've got a chip from Turner, spent ~6 months trying to diagnose a no start issue, rewired the engine with a new harness, bought a new DME, only to find out the chip itself was the issue.
The car starts and drives with the stock chip, but it's obvious it's not tuned right, the engine is getting more air than it thinks it is.
I'm impatient, so I've been taking the car out for a couple drives.
Forgot the oil return line on the CCV so it's pissing oil. Drives good though.

Anyone near Inglewood have a small compressor I can borrow AND/ OR a Leak Down Tester? I am trying to sell this motor and if I have to buy the tester I will but really dont have a use for a small compressor so Im hoping to avoid also buying that. If you have both, let me know your terms to borrow it and what it will cost me lol
Thanks

I haven't officially put it back on yet, but I'm going to use a layer of fabric under it and add some velcro squares as per installation recomended.
One of my other e30 buddies did just that and it looks great on his 84'. I was so impressed that I went ahead and bought into it. Wish me luck and I'll report once it's on all the way.@IRON-E30 aka Edwin:D

Look, I ended up getting a dash cap, left it exposed to the sun on over the dash with books and magazines on to weigh it down, so it would form correctly.
