    Well, more this weekend, but:

     

    Removed sump. Installed pbms baffled sump.

     

    Hooked up a smoke tester

     

    Removed, repaired and reinstalled up pipe (jeeeesus what a prick of a job)

     

    Drove it, it made a horrible whistle on boost 

     

    Found leaky downpipe, fixed that too.

     

    Found icv gasket blown out, fixed that too. Tightened up all intake clamps, no leaks, mean. 

     

    Got under the car, found leaking gasket between header and up pipe, fixed that, took it for a test drive 

     

    Hoooooooly craaaaaap, what a different car. So much more responsive, it sounds better, drives better, very happy 

     

    Fueling is up the creak because of the leaks in the up pipe, hope to get that sorted this week. 

     

    Things left to sort....

     

    Cambelt

    Brake caliper

    Brake pads

    Brake rotors

    Front sway bar

    Alignment

    Track time

    Jeez looks like you guys got a whole heap done after I left!

    That socket is under the steering wheel column somewhere - specifically there for all the accessories etc, Defi I had in BH5 was connected that way (dammit wish I just kept it...) and I am hoping they still kept the same plug in BR9 as I have a harness to go in there. 

     

     


    What he said, I've got mine plugged into this very socket under the steering column 

    And yep I'm T'd in that spot too

    Definitely sound quality. When I have compared my system to my friend's McIntosh systems, they sound much better, and there is a massive difference at high volumes. Connectivity wise there is a difference. My Kenwood headunit doesnt have an auxilary option. The only way of adding any extra connectivity is by getting a GROM unit that plugs in and overrides  the cd player. On the McIntosh headunits you can add an auxilary or bluetooth much easier.


    I've got a GROM in mine and it plugs into the port for the optional CD changer and doesn't override the cd stacker on the unit itself, unless you have a different kenwood to mine possibly

    Well hello there :) 

    As @tweedo mentioned I've been there and done many of that's with mine. In saying that it is pre-facelift, so don't have the fancy SI drive thingy knob

     

    I personally found that getting an exhaust (turbo back) helped heaps in terms of bum in seat dyno lol and I was happy for a while, until my engine decided it had enough.

    Now I'm running a new motor and have had it tuned it is way more exciting and pulls much better! 
    Have a look through my build thread (should be a link in my signature) for more details etc. and if you have any questions ask away :)
