Another update, forgot to get pics of some of the changes tho. So the black clad iron bolts that came with the spoiler rusted right after the first wash which was shitty so I replaced all those with stainless bolts and its been fine ever since lol
Next I had a little mishap with the rear diffuser. So a while back I was backing out of my buddies driveway and the middle rear diffuser brought up on the ground and buckles them all on 90* so the next day I straightened them out the best I could but a I didn't notice but I assume when I done that I broke free the self tapping screws and it must of been hanging down because a couple weeks later I was driving down the road and hit a bad dip and ripped the diffuser clear off, it flew like 30ft in the air hahah thank god nobody was behind me
Anyways I turned around and got it. All corners where buckled pretty bad so a while later I decided to straighten them out again and reinstall it but this time I used 5 self tapping screws and a lag bolt in the back and then bolted it to the two corners of the car hah should be good now
So next thing was installing my lower canards. I couldn't install them last time because they where too long for the flares so I needed to cut them
So first thing I done was cut a piece of cardboard out the same size as the lower canards and placed it against my flare to get a measurement of how much to cut. Anyways I got it cut and used a dremel to cut it out. The measurement looked great by holy cow was I off lol I don't know where I went wrong haha anyways a break down
This was after I cut the piece out and sanded it down
Next I relocated the bracket ahead to retain 3 bolting locations on the canard
Only thing Ill do is replace the bolt where I relocated the braket. Couldn't find the ones I bought for it so had to use some big clunky ones
After that I reinstalled my bumper and took some cell pics
Followed by some other pics with the camera
and then a funny pic from a recent show hahah
So some other issues ive figured out and going to fix over winter is
1. the oil consumption
A. Must be from the turbo, leak down and compression test was perfect. She smokes white smoke when idling for a while and tastes oily so again im ordering a new turbo and hopefully that's the issue there
2. The feedback knock I was getting
A. Was from a couple things, first we thought the pump wasn't working because it was showing less bars on the led display gauge. Before it was 7 out of 8 bars but come to realize that means it was over spraying and it regulated out and is no displaying 4 bars. Also we are going to a bigger jet for the meth and switching to 100% meth and not just 50/50
Also we found out that the fuel pump cant keep up and starts to lean out towards the top of the rpm range so got a new AEM pump coming to fix that issue and also going to install a Cobb fuel pressure sensor to monitor that
3. Losing boost
A. I thought at first it was a boost leak but come to find out it was cutting boost due to the DAM dropping to compensate for the knock it was getting
4. Clutch cant handle the power
A. Replace it lol just not sure with what one yet. Looking at a Clutch Masters FX350 and a SouthBend Stage 3
