Because yesterdya I drove 2hrs to go help him get his KA-T running. Spent 1hr troublesooting electronics. We called it a day. Bu tI had a feeling it was a fuel issue. Grabbed my can of starter fluid hit one shot into the intake and car fired up. 5 minutes later after making him go get gas, his car fired right up. He ran out of gas lol.....

thanks for the pics dude! and sorry about the drive.

as for suspension, it's just KYB AGX adjustables with Tanabe DF210 springs. lowers the car 2" in front and 1.7" in back. i like the stance of the car alot, and the ride height isn't bad at all for just springs. i'll probably get some coilovers sometime after i get this engine running right.

yeah it's crooked. i haven't gotten the proper mounts welded on yet since i didn't get any prior to install, so we made some mounts of our own until i go get the new ones welded.

so i took it out tonight and it didn't bog at all. im gonna get the FPR on this weekend and then do the gaskets and gaket makers for the exhaust leak removal. after that i'll be routing the vacuum for the wastegate so i can actually open up full boost with 8psi and not have to shift for safety. yeah yeah.

After that you should get a new turbo because yours should be nearing the end of it's 250mile life span..
