Re: Build thread

I finally found all the info I needed and got the AC sorted out, partly with Joe's help, and some guys from the forum. I played with the settings and got them as good as I could. Final AC 1.jpg Final AC 2.jpg Then I took the car out to finish up boost tuning, and ended up finding a couple failure po...

Re: Build thread

I did some testing tonight and it works, kinda. Since my AC request switch input is around 3.1-3.2v, I changed on to 3.5v and off is still 5v. I had to up the idle increase from 70 to about 200RPM because the engine kept dying with only 70RPM increase. I eventually changed it to 100RPM. And of cours...

Re: Build thread

I took the car to Travis at JC Repair today to get the AC charged. He got it charged, but the compressor isn't getting power for some reason, so basically I still don't have AC lol. And when I picked up the car, the check engine light was on and it was P1301 trigger reference error. I cleared it and...

Re: Build thread

I bought some 21/32" freeze plugs and Xcessive got back to me and I bought a couple freeze plugs from them too, but I'm not sure either one has shipped, so it sucks that I probably won't be able to drive the car this weekend. Ugh. And I had to cancel my appt to get AC charged today also. I real...

Re: Build thread

I was doing boost tuning today and on the last run I heard a huge boost leak, and when I let off the car was idling at 4-5k haha. Turns out one of the freeze plugs popped out. Was an interesting drive home haha.

Re: Build thread

I bought some pulleys on eBay that comprises the crank, alternator, stock size water pump, and power steering pulleys. I wanted it for the smaller water pump pulley, which I've been wanting for a while. I installed the alternator and crank pulleys as well, but I'm gonna sell the power steering pulle...

Re: Build thread

I did some testing with the EVAP system yesterday, changing the frequency and driving around. I had already changed the duty cycle to 40 all across and changed frequencies between 5hz, 100hz, and 200hz, and then removing the fuel cap. I had pressure come out on 5hz and 100hz after driving around, bu...

Re: Build thread

I pulled out some coolant last night and replaced the thermostat with the 180F, and I discovered the issue I was having. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53078350105_6203eb5560_k.jpg 2023-07-28_04-03-35 by Eric Jausel , on Flickr I also changed the screws in the door sills because the holes keep ...

Re: Build thread

I guess my alarm issue is back, setting automatically when I close the doors whether they're locked or not. I drove the car on Sunday and noticed the temps still getting kinda high. It was hot and I did drive slowly through Manitou Springs driving my temps up and then got on 24 pushing it up through...

Re: Build thread

I changed some water injection settings today, testing different frequencies, and bled the coolant again. And I worked on it again tonight to check the full range of frequencies. It seems as though the frequency is somewhat closely related to the injector duty cycle; at 30hz, it starts injecting at ...

Re: Build thread

I finally got around to bleeding the coolant system, and I realized just prior that to flush the reservior, so I did that too. I ran it for probably a couple hours, paused for dinner, and ran it another 30-45 minutes, because it wouldn't ever get rid of the bubbles completely. It was just small bubb...

Re: Build thread

Joe got water injection working last week. The frequency was incorrect, set at 100hz instead of 20-30hz as I've since learned from Rodney at ProMeth. Joe set it to 25hz, but it's only injecting between 60-100% duty cycle, really only starting to spray at 70% with water slowly dripping out at 60%. Ch...

Re: Build thread

I went to 7s day yesterday and did a fun drive through the mountains with Brett, Brian, and Simon. I hit 220F coolant temp on that drive, and coming back home on I25 through Denver I hit 221F, and then I remembered I could turn on my fans with the AC switch and my temps started dropping immediately....

Re: Build thread

I finished the boost control knob with the console blank when I got home. I had to cut a chunk out of the bottom of the blank, and make an extension for the shaft. It turned out alright, looks good from the outside, but it's harder to turn now for some reason. I also need to get a new bracket for th...

Re: Build thread

Last week I was looking into the water injection issue and realized I didn't have a fuse in the wire going from the battery to water pump relay, so it most definitely was not injecting lol. I put a 20a relay in there according to the SIRHC wiring diagram, disconnected the water hose from the pump to...
