Sonic!

[jim_in_fl]

Sonic received a full heart transplant. Here's the kicker's went to start clogged injectors, went to start again fires up starts puking oil (front crank seal, start it again just chugs (dizzy rotor button broke off). So finally after a long day started at 10:30 a.m. Drove it home around 2:30 a.m. She's home safe and sound. Eurotiva has more pics.

ok did I miss something? old motor out, new motor in? Is this the one you just snaked?

Turns out I blew my third vj14. But in order to swap the manifold and turbo I have to pull the motor because my radiator is massive. So why not through in a whole motor. I "snaked" motor, cable g-series, wiring harness, ecu, int. shaft, and ecu basically everything b6t you could ever ask for, for $300. Walked up on a jackpot and the guy pulled everything.

My old b6t was leaking oil from everywhere. I replaced 2 front main seals this week and couldn't get it to stop. Also replaced cam seals. Still leaking. I think the valve cover I painted was chipped in 2 corners of the cover and it was letting oil by. Oh well not my problem now. Lol

why the blow through VAF? you not in the factory spot?

[Flyin4stroke]

It eliminates any leaks before the throttle body and the vaf. Im running a blow off to atmosphere cause I like the sound. But the factory spot I was blowing off metered air causing a drop in idle because of rich condition. The car runs drive ability wise alot better. It doesn't search for idle at all I can remove the pipe after the turbo and run it n/a If I needed to. I used to get surging on the highway around 80 mph which I have heard from other b6t guys is commen. That is all gone. I have heard that b6t don't like this setup, but I have been driving my car for awhile and it's smoother and runs better this way.

[eurotiva]

Told ya !!

[sasquatch]

sweet, thanks for the info

i would say i would try this on my car, but i dont have a vaf
