I'm crossing my finger for you...if it is the incorrect sensor call Mazmart and have them overnight one to you at no charge since it was their fault

you might as well call mazmart to confirm the air sensor serial number is indeed for what you are looking for then if needed they can send a new one today

Speed if you want we can hook up the sCANalyser tool on Sunday and you can check out all the readings in your car (o2, fuels injections, etc etc)

cool thing is the makers just cracked the WDS codeswhich means ALL the data from the ECM (engine control module for others who are reading this) is accessible!!!!!!!!!!! means much better tuning possiblitiy for FI applications

check it out:

you'll need the greddy emanage software and cable and the password to mess with the maps...there are several who are doing it as we type this :D

hey don't worry about the jacks...I'm going out of town in a week so I may not need them for a while :D

Speed this Gauge may not be that expensive but sure is cheaper than replacing the entire A-pillar

Dang something didn't feel right about my ride last night. I talked to a Co- worker of mine about the BOV blowing at 3000 RPM. It was blowing as I was giving it GAS. He told me it should only blow as I let off the gas. hmmmmmm don't know whats wrong.
Maybe I have to tighten the BOV

I wish I could make it down on Sunday. Unfortunately, I will be working, but I'm gonna get in on the next one. I'd love to see that turbo 8 even if it isn't quite right yet.

Oh well, next time...

eheheheh :D Made alittle adjustment to the BOV. Change the 3 way spliter to a bigger one.
Run alot better now ehhehe :D but not quite tune. . But I definitely feel the boost now. I can even feel in 2nd gear. Got to save some $$ and buy the E-management tool so I can
load the tuned map.

Will the emanagement tool be necessary once the Hymee scan tool is ready? Or does the internal computer not have enough adjustment for boost?
