      Great to hear. Good plan on the new components too. It's good piece of mind.

        She fired up and ran!!! the tune is way off on it. Thats to be expected as its a used ecu from another setup. But i think i flooded it messing around with it. I just need it to idle then i can set timing and have it tuned. So happy.

          gotta hook up the vacuum line to the ecu tomorrow as well. That will help it out. That might get it to idle. how am i going to go to bed now?

                  Somehow i blew the igniter. So im now waiting for a new one tomorrow. I hope i didnt blow the coil pack as well. Off to get some wire to relocate the battery to behind the passenger.

                    Why are you moving the battery all the way back there?

                        I decided to leave the battery. I got rid of the VAF box and picked up a nice cone filter to replace it. I now have more room for the battery. Today im going to mount a new battery try and get the battery swapped out.

                        I put a new coil and new igniter on last night and got my spark back Just gotta figure out my tps wires and im done.

                          Good choice. There are a lot of reasons to leave the battery in the engine compartment and no good reason to move it.

                          I would switch to a smaller AGM powersports battery. I use a Deka ETX12 battery in my cars. It's much smaller and lighter than the stock battery and they are cheaper too. I paid 45 bucks for my last one on eBay.

                            ^What he said.
                            Mine is an even cheaper off brand deal, and it works fine too. Sat all winter and started right up without a jump or charge.

                              My issue now is the igniter keeps getting hot and going out.

                              Advancedynamix can you show me a picture of how you have setup the igniter in the past?

                                I believe Charlie runs a chipped Ecu. All the stock settings for spark.
