    Ben's 7M Lipp Boss Jr Build

    Keith! What's up man! I'm glad to see you found my build thread, especially since you're playing such an integral part in the project. As for the EGR and EVAP, I hadn't really put any thought into it. Is it mainly just an emissions thing? So guess what.......I received the turbo today...

    why switch to 91-92 dipstick

    Can we please specify which year dipstick is similar the one pictured? I have the barrel shapped one with the cross hatches in it and hate it. Thanks. Ben

    ECU Wiring Question

    I am having a company called boomslang fabrication (www.boomslang.us) make me a plug and play ECU wiring harness adapter for an Apexi NEO. I want to know if there are any differences to the ECU wiring between 88, 89, 90 models. I have an 89 Turbo with the square mounts, so I think that's early...

    Is this Correct? Tuning Related

    So with the Powerdex/SAFC combo, after tuning I would have the Powerdex constantly giving me an A/F ratio in the cabin, right? And with the SAFC, once I'm tuned, is there any reason that I would have to re-tune? I am really looking for a "tune it, set it, forget it" type set-up. Any...

    Probably suprasport. They've treated me very well thus far. Ben

    Is this Correct? Tuning Related

    Thanks, but I have searched quite a bit, and I'm still unclear of the whole tuning process. I guess I was just looking for a bit of reassurance before I lay down $800 on electronics that I have little knowledge of. Ben

    Is this Correct? Tuning Related

    When I get my car on the dyno next spring for tuning, I will want to have a wideband to monitor A/F ratio, and some sort of unit to adjust the fuel settings, correct? If that is correct, will a Powerdex AFX and Apexi SAFC get the job done? Anyone care to give me a quick "Tuning and A/F...

    Here's an update: Pat at LOA received the core engine, and it is going to the machine shop this week. Here are a few pics of the "before". Also, I placed an order with DM for the MKIV TT fuel pump. I'll keep you posted. Ben

    Anyone else? Will I be cool with just the Greddy Profec B2 and an Apexi SAFC? Thanks. Ben

    Ben's 7M Lipp Boss Jr Build

    Yeah, I thought it was BHG too! I got to work, and smoke was coming out of the engine bay. Then I saw coolant forming a little river under my car. Smoke was from the coolant getting on my dp. Ben

    Here is the engine bay as of right now. I miss driving her. I haven't even started her up since the coolant leak at the back of the engine. I haven't yet figured out how I'll get her from Waukesha to Milwaukee. Those coolant hoses back there are hard to see. Ben

    I have subsribers? Awesome! Just makes me want to log on to suprasport and order more goodies! I can't let the public down, right? As for the IC, the core measures 18.5"x6"x3.5". 2.5"in/out. Overall size is 20"x12"x3.5". I'll post pics as soon as they are on LOA's website. Oh...

    I am really clueless on what I should use to tune my car next spring. I'm ordering everything ahead of time so that it can all be installed by my mechanic next month. With the mods listed below, I would like to tune the car to 15-18psi and be able to set it and forget it. The car will be...

    Awwwww Shizzle.....the UPS man starting bringing the goods today! Thanks to Jack at Suprasport for the ultrafast shipping! Today I received the clutch, the intercooler, plugs, oil cooler, and oil filter relo kit. I can't wait to get the new snail! Ben

    Are you recommending King for tuning? I'll check out their website. About your PM about the 7M crank vs the 6M, does it make a big difference in performance/reliability? If so, I may be interested. Let me know your thoughts, and we'll go from there. I appreciate the advice, and it's always...

    I'll have to find a good dyno in the Milwaukee area for tuning.
