        • Say if I was going to swap a 4cyl diff into my 626 trans, would you be able to hook me up with one of those special phantom grip dealios you put in yours?

            I might be able to but not anytime soon, the only phantom grip i have is the one in my tranny, i do plan on getting an mfactory diff so when i switch to that i could send the phantom grip your way

                • ^^Thanks

                  I got a connecting piece to go from the intake to my MAF and it doesn't seem to want to start without me holding the MAF open, but when i tape it open it acts the same as it did before i had the piping connected :scratch:

                  so i think it might just need to stay running for a short period of time to get things worked in, my B6T acted the same way for the first few start ups but once i took it for a short drive everything was fine, i'm hoping its the same thing again

                  The only problem is i live in a quiet trailor park filled with mostly elderly people so revving my engine with nothing but open headers creates a problem, so i will address the idling issue once i have exhaust it, in the meantime i'll finish up the rad piping and hook up my tach & heat gauge and get the dash re-installed

                  I also decided to test the lights, make sure i didn't mess anything up when doing the tuck and at first my headlights didn't want to turn on and my turn signals were constantly on, i then realized i didn't hook up the two ground wires in the festiva harness, so after un-taping a small section of the harness and digging out the grounds, once connected my lights worked fine and my fan now works
