So what did you do to your SHO today!?

[luigisho]

Damn I hate these cars so much modification upgrades and custom work that you can do.

I just hope you get drunken vandal delete.

Damn I hate these cars so much modification upgrades and custom work that you can do. So here's my new project for the day. Engine cover customizing so I will be cutting the part on the outside line of the blue tape then the SHO I'm going to match it to my side fender Badges and they will light up so every time you open the hood the SHO will light up..
Here's my thoughts on the way I'll have it wire it up. They're will be no wires connecting top of the engine to engine cover so you can actually take out the engine cover and not have any wires hanging or have to unplug it. There are two prongs that hold the engine cover down I will make one prong posi another one negative when it locks in place they will connect the power to the SHO light on the engine cover.

Eager to see this, keep us updated. I have my MKS/Flex engine cover sitting waiting to decide what to do with it.

just bought a e30 from GH and going to put it up against a AJP e 30 tune with all my mods on the dyno in a few weeks. Just found it odd that ajp like a revision and GH is one and done?

So are you purchasing a custom E30 tune? Not sure how it works. Bc if it's a custom tune you bought no way it's one and done.

yes.
"Tune file, datalog configuration file, and instructions for loading the configuration file are attached. Datalogging is not required. If you have any concerns, or would just like for us to review a datalog, please do not hesitate to send us one." seems like a one and done to me?

Oof! Sounds like an LMS tune! I'd respond later with a datalog and say, "Wow this base E30 tune is great. Here's a log, let's dial this puppy in!". And see what they say...................

 

[76FoMoCo]

That's the plan!

My initial gearhead E30 tune was pretty close, within a tenth or two of final tune. You should definitely do a datalog at the track or in mexico and send it in just to be on safe side.

I have the same amount of mods as you I believe and mine was essentially spot on. Compared to AJPs, it feels more refined with the trans and smoothness of power. I datalogged and sent it to Matt for him to look over and he confirmed what I was seeing.

Mods are: GH IC, EPP dual intake, catted downpipes and catback, xdi35 pump, colder plugs and tstat.

Another Ohio SHO, nice! Fyi Kilkare has test and tune this coming Saturday 12-5 pm.

Changed the oil, air filter, and did a trans fluid swap this weekend.

Only got about 4 quarts out of the trans, and the fluid wasn't too bad looking. She does seem a bit happier with fresh fluid and the slight overfill.

Air filter was real bad. Must have been a country roads car before I bought it.

After a frustrating search on struts, shocks, etc then to find a workable schedule for installation of new tires, & alignment, I gave up. Yesterday I put her in the shop & picked her up this morning. She drives & rides AWESOME!!!
Love my SHO

EPP charge pipes, now featuring hot!
Bought these second hand. No idea they were VTA so I had to chair cap my recirc ports. Guess I’m reluctantly a member of the whoosh club now. Forgive the filth, it’s winter.

 

[76FoMoCo]

just ordered a set yesterday as I have a boost leak on the top end so I figured if I have to take of the hot pipes to look for cracks in the plastic I will just put on new pipes!

you can still recirv with these. Those are just the stock BOV mounts Mike just integrated the BOOMBA adapter into them.

I’d be there if it wasn’t my daughters birthday. Keep me posted for the next time you’re out. I live not too far away - down the street from King’s Island

Well yesterday I had my motor flush and new thermostat put in. Last Friday coming home from a party late night my car started overheat so here's what the thermostat look like after I took it out yesterday.
So you think it was bad? Lol

 

[76FoMoCo]

Teck didn't seat it correctly and just bolted down the housing?

That's the original thermostat we took out of the car. No I can move that left to right it's real loose

 

[76FoMoCo]

Wow never seen one fail that way
