Well, i havent done too much so far other than replace all the oils (except engine) ready for the blower and changed the pulley to the modified comptech version.



Searching for some of the answers has been vague or Ambiguous - so this is what i have at the moment:

Comptech SC kit

[QUOTE=kitkat,Aug 7 2007, 04:14 PM] No AEM ecu or UEGO yet - But will this cause issues with alarm / immobilizer if I were to move to an AEM device? If it were to how would it be resolved so that it could integrate with my thatcham class 1?

The Comptech rising fuel pressure regulator is crude

My install guide (in my signature) tells you how to do the pump.

Bibbs is right, and the simple answer for me is you should really do it all at once to do it properly.

I wouldn't try and run it without a mapped ECU. If you need to run the car you can install all of it apart from the injectors, FPR and leave the belt off, which will allow you to drive it to get it mapped. You then just have to plug the ECU in, fit the FPR and injectors, and put the belt on.

I drove mine with the Vortech on, aftercooler and all but just left the belt and fuelling bits off.

The key thing is knowing what effect you are having on the car - and if you dont know (which it sounds like) then there is a good chance you are going to break it, so best do it right and by the book.

thanks Ben and Mark,

Doing all at once is my preferred option, cash flow though is somewhat restricting the ability to do the whole hog before summers out - otherwise i would have installed with AEM & UEGO ready for Mase this week. I think i just needed to hear - dont be so f**** stupid!

BTW mine is going to Mase at some point when I complete the next stage, just gathering the bits at the moment.
Then I need to fit them
