becouse of strickt sound level rules at some of the tracks here in norway i had to make shure its not THAT noisy! so 2 silincers from KL racing at the back + a home made silencer welded staight on the KL racing cans ;P

The home made one is filled with a glass fiber mat, forgot to take a pic ;P













just a couple more welds and a solid mounting point left to do and the exhoust is finished

[volvo242]

changed out the EV1 connectors for the new and better EV6 connectors.. ive bought injectors that is e85 compatible, and the newer ev6 injectors has a better spray pattern they said


brake fluid reservoirs mounted



the exhoust is finished, welded the last stuff at the rear today. and i also made an wg outlet pipe!


the wg vband flange is 60mm outer diameter and the pipe is 2,5". so i cut plenty of cuts in the pipe, knocked it together and welded it. ok "reducer" i think


screamer pipe it is Gonna make an extra pipe when i get the time, that goes into the exhoust. then i can choose if i want to run the screamer pipe or change it out with a more silent version!

we where having trouble with the cam sensor yesterday.. the tooth that gives the signal is to narrow for NIRA to register, and since i dont want to take the shaft out now to make a new tooth i moved the sensor up to the camshaft for now..

also, the TPS was defective so i had to fit a GM style one instead!

btw, it might start tomorrow
